“…Thus far, various inorganic and organic fluorination reagents have been employed for this purpose:H F, [19] NaF, [20] KF, [21] KHF 2 , [22] CsF, [23] ZnF 2 , [24] HBF 4 , [25] Na 2 SiF 6 , [26] Bu 4 NF (TBAF), [27] SbF 3 , [28] KSO 2 F, [29] SeF 4 , [30] F 2 (aerosol), [31] BrF 3 , [32] XeF 2 , [33] SF 4 , [34] R 2 NÀSF 3 (DAST, [35] morpholinosulfur trifluoride, [36] and Deoxo-Fluor [37] ), (R 2 N=SF 2 )BF 4 (XtalFluor), [38] ArSF 3 (Fluolead), [39] (Me 4 N)SCF 3 , [40] cyanuric fluoride, [6,41] 2-fluoropyridinium salts, [42] fluoro formamidinium salts (TFFH and BTFFH), [43] perfluoroalkylamines (e.g.,Y arovenkosreagent and Ishikawasr eagent), [44] PhCOF, [45] and other Fs ources (Scheme 4B). [46] Among these synthetic methods,the following fluorinating reagents are especially practical and useful: HF, [19] DAST, [35] Deoxo-Fluor [37] (Me 4 N)SCF 3 , [40] and cyanuric fluoride. [6,41] Va rious types of acyl fluorides are effectively and easily obtainable from the corresponding carboxylic acids with these reagents,r egardless of their carbon framework or their functional groups.…”
