Computational studies on selective aromatic C-F bond activation at rhodium and ruthenium

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been carried out to study the selective C–F bond activation of fluoroaromatics at rhodium and ruthenium complexes. The C–F activation reaction of C6F5H with [Rh(SiR3)(PMe3)3] (R3 = Me2Ph, Ph3) to give [Rh(4-C6F4H)(PMe3)3] and FSiR3, has been studied...
