✦ Synopsis


The 16-electron, five-coordinate fluoro complex [RuF(dppp) 2 ]PF 6 (1a; dppp propane-1,3-diylbis[diphenylphosphine] smoothly reacts with 1,3-diphenylallyl bromide ( 1,1'-(3-bromoprop-1-ene-1,3-diyl)bis[benzene]) in dry CDCl 3 to give 1,3-diphenylallyl fluoride and [RuBr(dppp) 2 ] in nearly quantitative yield. Under similar conditions, bromide (or chloride)/fluoride exchange also occurs with chlorotriphenylmethane, bromodiphenylmethane, and tert-butyl bromide. The crystal structure of 1a is reported.
