Disclosed is a fluorination method comprising providing an aryl fluorosulfonate and a fluorinating reagent to a reaction mixture; and reacting the aryl fluorosulfonate and the fluorinating reagent to provide a fluorinated aryl species. Also disclosed is a fluorination method comprising providing, a salt comprising a cation and an aryloxylate, and SOFto a reaction mixture; reacting the SOFand the ammonium salt to provide a fluorinated aryl species. Further disclosed a fluorination method comprising providing a compound having the structure Ar&#x2014;OH to a reaction mixture; where Ar is an aryl or heteroaryl; providing SOFto the reaction mixture; providing a fluorinating reagent to the reaction mixture; reacting the SOF, the fluorinating reagent and the compound having the structure Ar&#x2014;OH to provide a fluorinated aryl species having the structure Ar&#x2014;F.

Method for aromatic fluorination

Disclosed is a fluorination method comprising providing a fluorinating reagent and a solvent to a reaction mixture; providing a compound having the formula Ar&#x2014;X to the reaction mixture; wherein Ar is aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl or substituted heteroaryl, and X is Cl, Br, I or NO, providing tetramethylammonium 2,6-dimethylphenolate to the reaction mixture; and reacting under conditions sufficient to provide a species having the formula Ar&#x2014;F.
