Nucleophilic aromatic fluorination (SNAr) is among the most common methods for the formation of C(sp2)-F bonds. Despite many recent advances, a long-standing limitation of these transformations is the requirement for rigorously dry, aprotic conditions to maintain the nucleophilicity of fluoride and suppress the generation of side products. This report addresses this challenge by leveraging tetramethylammonium fluoride alcohol adducts (Me4NF·ROH) as fluoride sources for SNAr fluorination. Through systematic tuning of the alcohol substituent (R), tetramethylammonium fluoride tert-amyl alcohol (Me4NF·t-AmylOH) was identified as an inexpensive, practical, and bench-stable reagent for SNAr fluorination under mild and convenient conditions (80 °C in DMSO, without the requirement for drying of reagents or solvent). A substrate scope of more than 50 (hetero) aryl halides and nitroarene electrophiles is demonstrated.

The reaction of acid fluorides with N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) produces anhydrous acyl azolium fluorides. With appropriate selection of acid fluoride and NHC, these salts can be used for the room temperature SNAr fluorination of a variety of aryl chlorides and nitroarenes.

This paper describes the room-temperature SNAr fluorination of aryl halides and nitroarenes using anhydrous tetramethylammonium fluoride (NMe4F). This reagent effectively converts aryl-X (X = Cl, Br, I, NO2, OTf) to aryl-F under mild conditions (often room temperature). Substrates for this reaction include electron-deficient heteroaromatics (22 examples) and arenes (5 examples). The relative rates of the reactions vary with X as well as with the structure of the substrate. However, in general, substrates bearing X = NO2 or Br react fastest. In all cases examined, the yields of these reactions are comparable to or better than those obtained with CsF at elevated temperatures (i.e., more traditional halex fluorination conditions). The reactions also afford comparable yields on scales ranging from 100 mg to 10 g. A cost analysis is presented, which shows that fluorination with NMe4F is generally more cost-effective than fluorination with CsF.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Taming the reagent: The use of anhydrous tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAFanh) in nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions, including variants of the selective halogen-exchange and fluorodenitration processes (see scheme), was investigated. It was shown that TBAFanh permits these reactions to be performed under surprisingly mild conditions if it is used in relatively nonpolar media.

Lithiation of fluoropyrazine followed by quenching with various electrophiles was successfully achieved and was used to synthesize new pyrazine derivatives. A further lithiation of 2-fluoro-3-substitute, pyrazines allowed access to 2,3,6-trisubstituted pyridazine derivatives. As an application, a one-pot synthesis of a quinuclidinylfluoropyrazine has been performed. When the 3-substituent bears a TMS protected alcohol, functionalization via metallation at C6 position provides tetrasubstituted pyrazines in good yield.
