N-Halosuccinimides are efficiently activated in
trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and BF3-H2O, allowing
the halogenations of deactivated aromatics. BF3-H2O is
more economic, easy to prepare, nonoxidizing, and offers sufficiently high
acidity.

A mild palladium-catalyzed, regioselective chlorination, bromination, and
iodination of arene C-H bonds using N-halosuccinimides as oxidants is
described. These transformations can provide products that are complementary
to those obtained via conventional electrophilic aromatic substitution
reactions.
