Abstract
Much progress has been made in the development of methods to both create compounds that contain C-F bonds and to functionalize C-F bonds. As such, C-F bonds are becoming common and versatile synthetic functional handles. This review summarizes the advantages of defluorinative functionalization reactions for small molecule synthesis. The coverage is organized by the type of carbon framework the fluorine is attached to for mono- and polyfluorinated motifs. The main challenges, opportunities and advances of defluorinative functionalization are discussed for each class of organofluorine. Most of the text focuses on case studies that illustrate how defluorofunctionalization can improve routes to synthetic targets or how the properties of C-F bonds enable unique mechanisms and reactions. The broader goal is to showcase the opportunities for incorporating and exploiting C-F bonds in the design of synthetic routes, improvement of specific reactions and advent of new methods.

Abstract
A cascade strategy to synthesise gem-difluorinated 2H-furans from reactions of BrCF2CO2Et with enaminones has been described. The reactions tolerate a wide variety of functional groups under metal-free conditions. An active aminocyclopropane is proposed to be a key intermediate through the cyclopropanation of difluorocarbene with enaminones, which further triggers a regioselective C-C bond cleavage in situ to afford the corresponding gem-difluorinated 2H-furans.

Abstract
The gold-catalyzed hydration reaction of haloalkynes is highly regioselective producing 2-halomethylketones as the sole products. Herein, we document a drastic fluorine effect where the reaction of 1-halo-3,3-difluoroalkynes as substrates leads to a complete reversal of selectivity and produces 3,3-difluoroesters as the unique products.

Abstract
The gold-catalyzed hydrofluorination reaction of internal alkynes using hydrofluoric acid is reported. Notably, those conditions use one of the most economical sources of HF and are free of additional additives. Both symmetrical and unsymmetrical internal alkynes can be utilized, and the use of alkynes bearing a fluorinated group at the propargylic position as substrates allowed for a regioselective hydrofluorination reaction.
