In this Account we describe a series of new reactions that we, and others, have reported that involve the transformation of C-F bonds into C-Mg, C-Al, C-Si, C-Fe and C-Zn bonds. We focus on the use of highly reactive main group nucleophiles and discuss aspects of reaction scope, selectivity and mechanism.
