    The Balz–Schiemann reaction transforms anilines to aryl fluorides via diazonium fluoroborates. The aromatic primary amine is first diazotized with sodium nitrite in the presence of fluoroboric acid at low temperatures to form an aryl diazonium tetrafluroborate. Upon heating, this intermediate decomposes to yield the corresponding aryl fluoride. The Balz–Schiemann reaction provides a preferred route for producing fluorobenzene compared to direct fluorination, which is a more violent reaction that is difficult to control.

    Mechanism of BalzSchiemann Reaction

    BalzSchiemann Reaction
    The Schiemann reaction (also called the BalzSchiemann reaction) is a chemical reaction in
    which anilines are transformed to aryl fluorides via diazonium fluoroborates . Named after the
    German chemists Gnther Schiemann and Gnther Balz, this reaction is the preferred route to
    fluorobenzene. acid.

    Fluoroarenes (aryl fluorides ) cannot be prepared by the direct fluorination of aromatic


    hydrocarbon ,since the reaction is very violent and cannot be easily controlled. These can
    however be easily prepared by BalzSchiemann reaction. in this reaction the aromatic primary
    amine is first diazotized with NaNO2 in the presence of HBF4 (Fluoroboric acid) at 273-278 K
    and the aryl diazonium tetrafluroborate yhus formed is heated to give the corresponding aryl
    fluoride.
