Silyl dienol ethers, prepared from α,β-unsaturated ketones, underwent proton sponge-catalyzed difluorocyclopropanation with trimethylsilyl 2,2-difluoro-2-fluorosulfonylacetate in a regioselective manner, leading to 1,1-difluoro-2-siloxy-2-vinylcyclopropanes in good yields. The cyclopropanes thus obtained were in turn subjected to fluoride-ion-catalyzed ring opening to afford 1-fluorovinyl vinyl

Solid-state reactions are influenced by the spatial arrangement of the reactants and the electrostatic environment of the lattice, which may enable lattice-directed chemical dynamics. Unlike the caging imposed by an inert matrix, an active lattice participates in the reaction, however
