title: Carbon(sp(3))-fluorine bond-forming reductive elimination from palladium(IV) complexes.
abstract: Pd(IV)-fluoride complexes, some of which are remarkably insensitive to water, have been synthesized and used in the title reaction, which proceeds with high selectivity to give the product of the C(sp(3))-F coupling. Preliminary mechanistic studies implicate a pathway involving dissociation of pyridine followed by direct C-F coupling at the Pd center.
