title: Acyl azolium fluorides for room temperature nucleophilic aromatic fluorination of chloro- and nitroarenes.
abstract: The reaction of acid fluorides with N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) produces anhydrous acyl azolium fluorides. With appropriate selection of acid fluoride and NHC, these salts can be used for the room temperature SNAr fluorination of a variety of aryl chlorides and nitroarenes.
