TLDR
The CF 2 group has found applications as a substituent in all classes of organic chemical products from medicinal products to materials, although it is less frequently encountered than the C-F and CF 3 substituents as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract
The CF 2 group has found applications as a substituent in all classes of organic chemical products from medicinal products to materials, although it is less frequently encountered than the C-F and CF 3 substituents. In this review, the geometric influence of placing two fluorine atoms on carbon is considered and in particular, deviations from tetra- hedral geometry are noted. The incorporation of the CF 2 group into CF 2 phosphonates as phosphate mimics is reviewed and the geometric and steric influences of the CF 2 group are considered when the substituent is placed within aliphatic chains and aliphatic ring (cyclo - dodecane) systems.

Die Strukturen der mittleren Ringverbindungen III. Die Struktur des Cyclododecans

TL;DR: In this paper, the crystal structure of cyclododecane was determined from the three-dimensional PATTERSON function and refinded by threedimensional difference syntheses, showing that the observed data are almost equally compatible with two possible molecular conformers.
