The interconversion between difluoromethylene ylide and difluorocarbene is described. The difluoromethylene ylide precursor, Ph3P+CF2CO2-, could be turned into an efficient difluorocarbene reagent, whereas the classical difluorocarbene reagents, HCF2Cl and FSO2CF2CO2TMS, could generate highly reactive difluoromethylene ylide. Thus the Wittig difluoro-olefination and difluorocyclopropanation could be selectively realized by using the same reagent. In addition, the ylides obtained from different carbene sources showed different reactivity in Wittig reactions.
