Abstract
Application of silicon tetrafluoride to fluorinations with xenon difluoride as a catalyst is investigated. It was found that vic-difluorination of phenyl alkenes and transformation of benzaldehydes to difluoromethoxybenzenes using xenon difluoride are enhanced by silicon tetrafluoride.

Would someone fetch the actual PDF as my account doesn't work for some reason :-[ ? DOI:10.1016/S0022-1139(99)00103-7 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0022%2D1139%2899%2900103%2D7)
Some editing done :P ;) ... "I post these so seldom I didn't even notice the DOI function ::) .."
