Rapid Fluorodesilylation of Aryltrimethylsilanes Using Xenon Difuoride: An Efficient New Route to Aromatic Fluorides

Abstract
The reaction of aryltrimethylsilanes (1) with xenon difluoride in C6F6 at room temperature results in the rapid and clean formation of arylfluorides (2). Evidence that the reaction proceeds via arylradicals (8) is presented.
