The potassium salt of the boron-centred nucleophile B(CN)<sub>3</sub><sup>2-</sup> (<b>1</b>) readily reacts with perfluorinated arenes, such as hexafluorobenzene, decafluorobiphenyl, octafluoronaphthalene and pentafluoropyridine, which results in KF and the K<sup>+</sup> salts of the respective borate anions with one {B(CN)<sub>3</sub>} unit bonded to the (hetero)arene. An excess of K<sub>2</sub><b>1</b> leads to the successive reaction of two or, in the case of perfluoropyridine, even three C- ...[more]
