Diethylaminosulfur Trifluoride (DAST)
Diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST) is ideal for nucleophilic fluorination and has been used in selective fluorinations of alcohols, alkenols, carbohydrates, ketones, sulfides, epoxides, thioethers, and cyanohydrins.
PhenoFluor™ Solution for Convenient, One-step Deoxyfluorination
The functional-group-tolerant, one-step conversion of phenols to aryl fluorides is a highly desirable process. PhenoFluor™ solution, provides straightforward method to fluorinate alcohol and phenols without preactivation and regioselectively fluorinate highly functionalized late-stage intermediates.
XtalFluor-E® and XtalFluor-M®: Convenient, Crystalline Deoxofluorination Reagents
This is an article regarding XtalFluor-E® and XtalFluor-M®: Convenient, Crystalline Deoxofluorination Reagents.
TADDOL
The chiral auxiliaries TADDOLs (α,α,α,α-tetraaryl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5- dimethanols) developed by Seebach's group have found numerous applications in asymmetric synthesis ranging from utilization as stoichiometric chiral reagents or in Lewis acid mediated reactions, to roles in catalytic hydrogenation and stereoregular metathesis polymerization.
Acid Halogenation Reagents
Fluoroamidinium salts were an advance in acid halogenation. Compared to chlorides, acid fluorides have greater water stability and a lack of conversion to the corresponding oxazolones upon treatment with organic bases.
Fluoroalkylation: Expansion of Togni Reagents
The fluoroalkylation toolbox now includes Togni reagents, hypervalent iodine perfluoroalkylation reagents, fluoroalkyl bromides, silanes, carboxylates, and sulfonyl fluorides for late stage fluoroalkylation.
Fluorinated Azides: Click Chemistry Meets Fluorine
Fluorinated azides are a new tool that can be used to introduce fluorinated groups to molecules. These molecules can utilize click chemistry to easily add fluorinated groups.
Sulfonyl Chlorides and Sulfonamides
Sulfonyl chlorides are often chosen as building blocks in medicinal chemistry for their ability to easily react with heterocyclic amines to create complex sulfonamides.
Selectfluor™
Selectfluor™ (1-chloromethyl-4-fluoro-1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bis(tetrafluoroborate), or F-TEDA) is a user-friendly, mild, air- and moisture-stable, non-volatile reagent for electrophilic fluorination.
AISF: A Stable, Solid Alternative to Sulfuryl Fluoride Gas
A solid and bench-stable alternative to sulfuryl fluoride gas has been developed, 4-(Acetylamino)phenyl]imidodisulfuryl difluoride (ASIF). ASIF is a shelf-stable, crystallilne reagent for the installation of the valuable SO2F functional group.
Trimethyl(trifluoromethyl)silane (Ruppert–Prakash Reagent)
Technical article for Trimethyl(trifluoromethyl)silane (Ruppert–Prakash Reagent)
Deoxyfluorination with 2-Pyridinesulfonyl Fluoride (PyFluor)
The prevalence of organofluorine compounds in industry and drug design necessitates the ability to introduce C–F bonds to molecules.
AlPhos and [(AlPhosPd)2•COD] for Pd-Catalyzed Fluorination
Fluorine containing aromatics (ArF) are desirable compounds with applications in medicinal chemistry and the agricultural industry.
Trifluoromethylator™, A Robust Arene Trifluoromethylation Reagent: (Phen)Cu-CF3*
(Phen)Cu-CF3 (cat. #L510009) is an easily handled, thermally stable, single-component reagent for the trifluoromethylation of aryl iodides.
