Nucleophilic replacement in decafluoroanthracene

Abstract

Decafluoroanthracene undergoes replacement of the 2-fluorine when treated with sodium methoxide or with dimethylamine, and this is not in accord with the amplified Iπ-repulsion theory which requires attack at the 9-position; there is now no theory which rationalizes the position of nucleophilic replacement in all polyfluoro-aromatic compounds.
