Halodefluorination of alkylfluorides using Group 13 metal halides has been known for quite some time (first reported by Newman in 1938) and is often utilised in its crude stoichiometric form to substitute fluorine with heavier halogens. However, recently halodefluorination has undergone many developments. The reaction can be effected with a range of metal halide sources (including s-block, f-block and p-block metals), and has been developed into a catalytic process. Further, methods for monoselective halodefluorination in polyfluorocarbons have been developed allowing exchange of only a single fluorine with a heavier halogen. The reaction has also found use in cascade processes where the final product may not even contain halide, yet the conversion of fluorine to more reactive halogens is a pivotal reaction step in the cascade. This review provides a summary of the developments in the reaction since its inception until now.

AbstractBis(1,3,5-trimethylbenzene)gallium(I) tetra­chloridoaluminate(III), [(1,3,5-(CH3)3C6H3)2Ga][AlCl4] (1), bis(1,3,5-trimethylbenzene)gallium(I) tetrabromido­aluminate(III), [(1,3,5-(CH3)3C6H3)2Ga][AlBr4] (2) and (1,3,5-trimethylbenzene)gallium(I) tetraiodidoaluminate(III), [1,3,5-(CH3)3C6H3Ga][AlI4] (3) were synthesized from the corresponding subvalent GaI/AlIII mixed metal halides and characterized via C,H analysis, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and X-ray single crystal diffraction. Compound 1 crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric monoclinic space group Cc isotypic to [(1,3,5-(CH3)3C6H3)2Ga][GaCl4]. For 2 and 3 the monoclinic space group P21/n is found, however, they are neither isotypic nor homotypic. While 2 is isotypic to [(1,3,5-(CH3)3C6H3)2In][InBr4], 3 establishes a new structure type. In the solids of all three title compounds coordination polymeric chains are found, in 1 and 2 built up from bis(arene)-coordinated, in 3 from mono(arene)-coordinated Ga+ ions and the corresponding AlX4− anions in a 1κCl:2κCl′ (1), 1κCl,Cl′:2κCl″ (2) or 1κCl,Cl′:2κCl″:3κCl‴ (3) bridging mode. Taking into account the weaker coordinating character of the AlCl4− as compared to the AlBr4− anion, in line with expectations the number of gallium halogen contacts is increased and the strength of the π-arene bonding is reduced in the bromide 2 as compared to the chloride 1. Finally, with the even more strongly coordinating AlI4− anion the arene coordination is limited to one molecule. Considering mesitylene complexes of gallium, the formation of a mono(arene) complex is unprecedented and even considering group 13 elements in general, the formation of a mono(mesitylene) complex like 3 is unusual. Furthermore, compound 3 is the first structurally characterized arene solvate of a main group metal tetraiodidometallate.

The molecular structures of trichlorido(2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine-κ3N,N′,N′′)gallium(III), [GaCl3(C15H11N3)], and tribromido(2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine-κ3N,N′,N′′)gallium(III), [GaBr3(C15H11N3)], are isostructural, with the GaIIIatom displaying an octahedral geometry. It is shown that the Ga—N distances in the two complexes are the same within experimental error, in contrast to expected bond lengthening in the bromide complex due to the lower Lewis acidity of GaBr3. Thus, masking of the Lewis acidity trends in the solid state is observed not only for complexes of group 13 metal halides with monodentate ligands but for complexes with the polydentate 2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine donor as well.

Abstract The results described in the present paper can be summarized as follows: 1. Certain antioxidants containing nitrogen, like aldol-α-naphthylamine and Stabilite Alba, give in alcoholic solution with higher halides of certain metals, especially those of iron and copper, unstable intense blue-violet as well as stable carmine-red colorations, which may be regarded as more or less stable complex compounds of these antioxidants. A series of other heavy metal halides of which similar behavior would be expected (for example, SnCl4, CoCl3, etc.) give no color reactions of this kind. 2. Both the chemical and the optical behavior of these colored solutions indicate that they contain complexes of ferric chloride and cupric chloride groups attached to tertiary nitrogen, as in the haemin of blood pigment. 3. Of the antioxidants studied here, aldol-α-naphthylamine reacts quickest with the metal halides named above, Agerite the slowest and Stabilite Alba somewhere between the two. The reaction with cupric chloride occurs in every case much more rapidly than that with ferric chloride. It is obvious that this behavior might be utilized to distinguish analytically small quantities of these substances. 4. The complex metal halide compounds show strong oxygen-transporting action, as does the haemin of the blood, which contains iron. This is many times greater with the compounds of antioxidants which contain copper than with those which contain iron compounds, and this agrees with the similar behavior of compounds of these metals with rubber, as has long been known. 5. Since the antioxidants are oxidized in the course of time, as the result of autoöxidation, they protect an autoöxidizable substance like rubber only so long as they are not rendered inactive. Since traces of soluble heavy metal compounds, especially of iron, are invariably present in rubber compounding ingredients, it can be understood why rubber mixtures containing protective agents are more or less strongly and more or less rapidly discolored as a result of the formation of dark-colored metal complex compounds and their oxidation products. 6. Finally it was possible to show that the complex metal halide compounds of the antioxidants studied are remarkably sensitive toward certain catalytic poisons such as hydrocyanic acid, in quite an analogous fashion to known biological oxygen carriers. It is entirely possible that this phenomenon may also be of significance in the use of protective agents in technical rubber mixtures.
