Abstract

As a novel Sanger-type reagent, 2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyldiazonium tetrafluoroborate enabled the versatile functionalization of primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols. Based on a mild nucleophilic aromatic substitution of the fluorine atom under unprecedented, base-free conditions, the diazonium unit on the aromatic core of the resulting aryl-alkyl ether could be employed for such diverse transformations as radical C−H activation and cyclization, as well as palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.
