A hydrogen bond donor solvent assisted (radio)halogenation and deuteration of organoborons has been developed. The reactions exhibited high functional group tolerance and needed only an ambient atmosphere. Most importantly, compared to literature methods, our conditions are more consistent with the principals of green chemistry (e.g., metal-free, strong oxidant-free, more straightforward conditions).

While halogenation is of key importance in synthesis and radioimaging, the currently available repertoire is largely designed to introduce a single halogen per molecule. This report makes the selective introduction of several different halogens accessible. Showcased here is the privileged stability of nontoxic aryl germanes under harsh fluorination conditions (that allow selective fluorination in their presence), while displaying superior reactivity and functional-group tolerance in electrophilic iodinations and brominations, outcompeting silanes or boronic esters under rapid and additive-free conditions. Mechanistic experiments and computational studies suggest a concerted electrophilic aromatic substitution as the underlying mechanism.

An investigation into the mechanism of Cu-catalyzed aryl boronic acid halodeboronation using electrophilic halogen reagents is reported. Evidence is provided to show that this takes place via a boronate-driven ipso-substitution pathway and that Cu is not required for these processes to operate: General Lewis base catalysis is operational. This in turn allows the rational development of a general, simple, and effective base-catalyzed halodeboronation that is amenable to the preparation of 125I-labeled products for SPECT applications.
