Transition metal free, late-stage, regiospecific, aromatic fluorination on a preparative scale using a KF/crypt-222 complex

Abstract

We herein report the development of a convenient, regioselective, aromatic fluorination method of hypervalent iodonium ylides for synthesising fluoro-arenes on a preparative scale. This transition metal free, nucleophilic methodology provides good yields for sterically hindered substrates, irrespective of activation. The methodology simplifies reference synthesis for PET imaging.
