Entry Additive Yield 7 Yield 8a Yield 8b
1 None 54% <2% <2%
2 0.2 equiv NBu4OAc 26% <2% <2%
3 1 equiv NBu4OAc 2% 16% 16%
4 1 equiv NBu4PF6 56% <2% <2%
5 1 equiv H2O 50% <2% <2%
6 10 equiv H2O 50% <2% <2%

Conditions: Complex 6 (1 equiv) and the appropriate additive in DCE (0.26 mL) for 12 h at 60 °C. Yields were determined by 19F and 1H NMR spectroscopy and represent an average of at least two independent runs.
