Perfluorinated arenes (benzeneF derivatives, diphenylF, naphthaleneF) were converted into X-perfluoroarenes (X = Br, I) via the developed one-pot protocol based on [Fe(acetylacetonate)3]-assisted C-F functionalization. The syntheses proceed under mild conditions and employ readily available perfluorinated arenes, which are treated with EtMgBr followed by addition of X2/[Fe(acetylacetonate)3] (0.8 mol %); yields range from good to moderate. The σ-hole donor properties of the obtained mono- and di-X-perfluoroarenes and the significance of these species for halogen-bonding-based crystal engineering was illustrated in a series of postsynthetic experiments, all supported by density functional theory (DFT) energy calculations, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surface analysis, and the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM). These include (i) a solid-state X-ray diffraction study of X-perfluoroarene self-association (dimerization) via iodine σ-hole - electron belt interactions (three X-ray structures) and (ii) verification of X-perfluoroarene σ-hole donor abilities by their interactions with iodides acting as external σ-hole acceptors (five X-ray structures); a Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed for all eight structures.
Unexpected reactivity of cyclic perfluorinated iodanes with electrophiles

We have found that cyclic perfluorinated iodanes react with electrophiles (E+ = Br, Cl, F, I) to afford perfluorinated E-RF compounds. This reactivity is unexpected since cyclic perfluorinated iodanes are considered as electrophilic reagents that normally react with nucleophiles (e.g. Nu- = SR, OR) to afford Nu-RF products. The utility of this new transformation is demonstrated for a [18F]CF3CF2-containing compound which was prepared from [18F]XeF2 obtained from cyclotron produced [18F]fluoride.
Utilising Sodium-Mediated Ferration for Regioselective Functionalisation of Fluoroarenes via C?H and C?F Bond Activations

Pairing iron bis(amide) Fe(HMDS)2 with Na(HMDS) to form new sodium ferrate base [(dioxane)0.5?NaFe(HMDS)3] (1) enables regioselective mono and di-ferration (via direct Fe?H exchange) of a wide range of fluoroaromatic substrates under mild reaction conditions. Trapping of several ferrated intermediates has provided key insight into how synchronised Na/Fe cooperation operates in these transformations. Furthermore, using excess 1 at 80 °C switches on a remarkable cascade process inducing the collective twofold C?H/threefold C?F bond activations, where each C?H bond is transformed to a C?Fe bond whereas each C?F bond is transformed into a C?N bond.
