Heptafluorotolyl-substituted perfluorocyclopentene acts as a four-electron oxidant for the homocoupling of Grignard reagents. It can also be used for catalytic homocoupling with a low catalyst loading (up to 2 mol %) in the presence of atmospheric oxygen. The organocatalytic cycle involves the generation of an organic radical and a perfluorocyclopentadienyl anion.
