A very simple reductive system such as zinc in aqueous ammonia has been shown to be applicable for hydrodefluorination of some perfluoroarenes (hexafluorobenzene, octafluorotoluene, octafluoronaphthalene and decafluorobiphenyl) under mild conditions. In all cases an ammonia concentration effect has been observed. Moreover, for octafluoronaphthalene, the presence of NH4Cl is of importance and for decafluorobiphenyl this factor and the addition of an organic solvent to the aqueous ammonia are significant.
