A rhodium complex catalyzed the conversion of the C-O bond of heteroaryl aryl ethers to the C-F bond. The reaction of (4-chlorophenylthio)pentafluorobenzene with heteroaryl aryl ethers provided heteroaryl fluorides and heteroaryl (4-chlorophenylthio)tetrafluorophenyl ethers; this involved the cleavage of a single heteroaryl C-O bond under equilibrium conditions. The reaction of heteroaryl aryl ethers with 2-fluorobenzothiazole in which two heteroaryl and aryl C-O bonds were cleaved provided heteroaryl fluorides and aryl fluorides. The reactions were applicable to five-membered and six-membered heteroaryl aryl ethers and also to diaryl ethers possessing one or two electron-withdrawing groups.

Selective fluorination of a range of pyridine and quinoline substrates to give corresponding 2-fluoro-derivatives can be readily achieved in high yield at room temperature using elemental fluorine-iodine mixtures. Reaction of fluorine with iodine forms, in situ, systems that function like sources of both iodonium and fluoride ions and fluorination of heterocyclic derivatives is suggested to proceed by fluoride ion attack on intermediate W-iodo-heterocyclic species. Quinoxaline derivatives react under similar conditions to give either the 2-fluoro- or 2,3-difluoro-quinoxaline derivatives depending on the ratio of fluorine passed through the solution. In related processes, pyridine can be alkoxylated upon reaction of an appropriate alcohol and fluorine.

A method of fluorinating a heterocyclic organic compound comprises the step of reacting a heterocyclic compound with elemental fluorine in the presence of another halogen. The reaction may be conducted in the presence of a base.
