Abstract
Transition-metal-free hydrodehalogenation of aryl halides (eg. bromides) can take place efficiently in the presence of green polyethylene glycol (PEG-800) and t-BuOK without adding any extra solvents and additives. A radical mechanism is proposed for this transition-metal-free dehalogenation of aryl halides and the role of polyethylene glycol is both reaction promotor and activated alkyl CH donor.
