The defluorosilylation of aryl fluorides to access aryl silanes was achieved under transition-metal-free conditions <i>via</i> an inert C-F bond activation. The defluorosilylation, mediated by silylboronates and KOtBu, proceeded smoothly at room temperature to afford various aryl silanes in good yields. Although a comparative experiment indicated that Ni catalyst facilitated this transformation more efficiently, the transition-metal-free protocol is advantageous from a green chemistry perspectiv ...[more]
