Deoxyhalogenation of aryl aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters has been achieved by using a suitable metal halide Lewis acid as a carbonyl activator and halogen carrier, in combination with borane-ammonia as the reductant. Selectivity is achieved by matching the stability of the carbocation intermediate with the effective acidity of the Lewis acid. Substituents and substitution patterns significantly influence the choice of solvent/Lewis acid combination. Logical combinations of these factors have also been applied for the regioselective conversion of alcohols to alkyl halides.
