F makes the break: The carbon-fluorine single bond is quite strong, thus making aliphatic C-F bond scission unusually challenging. A new methodology utilizing YbI3 leads to the conversion of a C-F bond into a C-I bond, and is compatible with various functional groups. The reaction is exceptionally selective towards alkyl fluorides and proceeds under mild conditions. Copyright
