Conversion of a (sp(3))C-F bond of alkyl fluorides to (sp(3))C-X (X=Cl, C, H, O, S, Se, Te, N) bonds using organoaluminium reagents

A simple method for the conversion of (sp(3))C-F bonds of alkyl fluorides to (sp(3))C-X (X=Cl, C, H, O, S, Se, Te, N) bonds has been achieved by the use of a hexane solution of organoaluminum reagents having Al-X bonds.
