Cu(OTf)2‑Mediated Fluorination of Aryltrifluoroborates with Potassium Fluoride

This Communication describes the Cu(OTf)2-mediated fluorination of aryltrifluoroborates with KF. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions (at 60 °C over 20 h) and shows a broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance. The Cu is proposed to play two separate roles in this transformation: (1...

Zusammenfassung:This Communication describes the Cu(OTf)2-mediated fluorination of aryltrifluoroborates with KF. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions (at 60 °C over 20 h) and shows a broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance. The Cu is proposed to play two separate roles in this transformation: (1) as a mediator for the aryl–F coupling and (2) as an oxidant for accessing a proposed CuIII(aryl)(F) intermediate.
