General description

The reactions of pentafluoropyridine with cobalt(0) complex, Co(PMe3)4 was investigated.

Pentafluoropyridine is a fluorinated building block for the synthesis of polysubstituted pyridine derivatives.

Application

Pentafluoropyridine was used in the preparation of η2-C,C coordinated pentafluoropyridine complex. It was also used in the preparation of polyfluorinated coupling products via Pd(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction with diarylzinc compounds. It was also used as derivatizing reagent in the sensitive GC-MS method for determination of the four endocrine disrupting chemicals.

This report describes the first Pd(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling of hexafluorobenzene (C6F6) with diarylzinc compounds to give a variety of pentafluorophenyl arenes. This reaction could be applied to other perfluoroarenes, such as octafluorotoluene, pentafluoropyridine, and perfluoronaphthalene, to give the corresponding polyfluorinated coupling
