Abstract
Organic molecules containing fluorine and sulfur atoms represent a large percentage of approved pharmaceuticals. Those with combination of both S and F atoms in their structure such as Xtandi, approved in 2012 for prostate cancer, indicates the importance of synthetic methods that accommodates both atoms in an organic moiety. In this study, a novel aspect of sulfoxonium ylide reactivity was explored, unveiling a streamlined and mild synthesis method for gem-difluorinated keto-sulfoxides. Our protocol offers a direct and practical approach to prepare these compounds in 14-80 % chemical yields, that were represented by 21 examples. NMR studies and Hammett correlations gave strong evidence about the mechanism of this transformation.

Abstract
We report the mild and selective mono- and difluorination of 4-alkylpyridines. The process involves soft-dearomatization of pyridines to the corresponding alkylidene dihydropyridines and treatment with Selectfluor. The reaction tolerates a broad range of functional groups, including those bearing acidic and weak C-H bonds. In addition, selective fluorination of 4-alkylpyridines attached to 2-alkylpyridines and 2-alkylpyrimidines can be achieved in good yields, but a 4-alkylpyridine tethered to a 4-alkylpyrimidine is fluorinated at both heterobenzylic positions.

Abstract
Herein, a tunable iodization/deuterolysis protocol for phosphonium ylides by employing D2O as the deuterium source was designed. Notably, this process could be manipulated by tuning the base, thus leading to two valuable deuterated building blocks - benzyl iodides and aromatic aldehydes with broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility and excellent deuteration degree. Concise syntheses of a series of deuterated drug analogues have been achieved based on the developed deuteration reaction platform.

Abstract
A phosphine-mediated, well-designed Morita-Baylis-Hillman-type/Wittig cascade for the rapid assembly of a quinolinone framework from benzaldehyde derivatives is developed for the first time. By rationally combining I2/NIS-mediated cyclization, biologically relevant 3-(benzopyrrole/furan-2-yl) quinolinones were facilely synthesized in a one-pot process by starting from 3-styryl-quinolinones bearing an o-hydroxy/amino group, significantly expanding the chemical space of this privileged skeleton. Further utility of this protocol is illustrated by successfully performing this transformation in a catalytic manner through in situ reduction of phosphine oxide by phenylsilane.

Abstract
A visible-light-promoted olefinic C-H trifluoromethylation of enamides was developed by employing cheap and stable Langlois' reagent as the CF3 source. A series of β-CF3 enamides were obtained in moderate to good yields with high E-isomer selectivity under mild conditions. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that molecular oxygen acts as the terminal oxidant for this net oxidative process, and the E isomer selectivity could be well explained by a base-assisted deprotonation of the cation intermediate.

Abstract
A novel phosphine-catalysed, one-pot domino approach for the annulation of 2-formylphenyl alkynoates with activated methylene compounds to construct various cyclopentene-fused dihydrocoumarins is reported. This developed strategy provides a facile and efficient approach for the synthesis of structurally complex coumarins from inexpensive and readily available alkynoates.
