General description

1,2-Difluorobenzene undergoes defluorination under very mild conditions by H2 in the presence of NaOAc over rhodium pyridylphosphine and bipyridyl complexes tethered on a silica-supported palladium catalyst.

Application

1,2-Difluorobenzene(1,2-DFB) has been used to study the mechanism of dissociation of o-, m- and p-difluorobenzene ions by threshold photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy. It has been used to study the room temperature adsorption of 1,2-DFB, 1,2-dichlorobenzene and 1,2-dibromobenzene on Si(100)2x1 by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and temperature programmed desorption. It was used as solvent in electrochemical studies on transition metal complexes.
Solvent useful for electrochemical studies on transition metal complexes.

In the present study, a hypothesis is presented for the prediction of the regioselectivity of cytochrome P-450 catalyzed hydroxylation of fluorobenzenes. The regioselectivity of the in vivo hydroxylation of fluorobenzene, 1,2-difluorobenzene, 1,3-difluorobenzene, 1,2,3-triluorobenzene, and 1,2,4-triflurobenzene could be predicted within 6%
