This work demonstrates the unique features of the never used before Py?BrF3 complex in the field of aromatic organic fluorinations. The main disadvantage of the noncomplexed BrF3 is the fact that usually, in addition to the desired fluorination, a parallel electrophilic aromatic bromination takes place as well. Use of the Py?BrF3 complex reduces this electrophilic bromination, which is observed with most reagents based on fluorine and bromine [BrF].
