Abstract

Abstract Starting from six industrially available fluorinated pyridines, an expedient access to all three tetrafluoropyridines (2–4), all six trifluoropyridines (5–10), and the five non- commercial difluoropyridines (11–14 and 16) was developed. The methods employed for the selective removal of fluorine from polyfluoropyridines were the reduction by metals or complex hydrides and the site-selective replacement by hydrazine followed by ...
