Nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reactions can provide metal-free access to synthesize mono-substituted aromatic compounds. We have developed efficient SNAr conditions for p-selective substitution of polyfluoroarenes with phenothiazine in the presence of a mild base to afford the corresponding 10-phenylphenothiazine (PTH) derivatives. The resulting polyfluoroarene-bearing PTH derivatives were subjected to a second SNAr reaction to generate highly functionalized PTH derivatives with potential applicability as photocatalysts for the reduction of carbon–halogen bonds.

A novel method for preparing aromatic compounds containing cyclopropoxy via nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction (SNAr) of fluoroaromatic compounds with cyclopropanol under relatively mild conditions is presented. As compared to the approaches reported previously for preparing 1-(cyclopropyloxy)-2-nitrobenzene, the one proposed in this work is simplified without sacrificing the yields: When the reaction was performed at 75 °C with Cs2CO3 as the base and DMF as solvent, after 6 h the yield was up to 90%. Finally, various fluoroaromatic compounds were employed as substrates for a test that proves a wide application scope of the method.

A transition-metal-free etherification protocol that is capable of synthesizing deuterated ethers is described. A wide range of aryl alkyl ethers and thioethers were suitable for this transformation owing to the mild reaction conditions. Besides, a series of sterically bulky deuterated alcohols were successfully incorporated into cyano-substituted arenes. The results of mechanistic studies suggested this reaction might take place via nucleophilic aromatic substitution pathway.

N-[4-(1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-2,4′-bipyridin-2′-yl]benzene-1,4-diamine was synthesized with a good yield by the reaction of 2′-chloro-4-(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-2,4′-bipyridine with 4-phenylenediamine. The functionalization of the pyridine was accomplished by a nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reaction that afforded the target compound. The synthesized compound was characterized by chemical analysis, which includes nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) (1H-NMR and 13C-NMR), Thin Layer Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (TLC-MS), high- performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), and elemental analysis.
