Fluorine does not belong to the pool of chemical elements that nature uses to build organic
matter. However, chemists have exploited the unique properties of fluorine and produced …

We previously reviewed the use of 19 F NMR in the broad field of chemical biology [Cobb,
SL; Murphy, CD J. Fluorine Chem. 2009, 130, 132–140] and present here a summary of the …

Abstract Pentafluorosulfanyl (SF5)‐containing compounds and corresponding analogs are a
highly valuable class of fluorine‐containing building blocks owing to their unique properties …

This short review covers the most important advances published in the literature during the
last five years, concerning the synthesis, chemical modifications, and applications of SF 5 …

Side chain-fluorinated amino acids are useful tools in medicinal chemistry and protein
science. In this review, we outline some general strategies for incorporating fluorine atom (s) …

Phenols are extremely valuable building blocks in the areas of pharmaceuticals, natural
products, materials and catalysts. In order to carry out modifications on phenols, the phenolic …

The photoactivation of notoriously inert sulfur hexafluoride represents a challenge for
photochemistry. This short review summarizes recently published efforts and the …

The area of fluorinated amino acid synthesis has seen rapid growth over the past decade.
As reports of singly fluorinated natural amino acid derivatives have grown, researchers have …

Recently, we suggested liquid and high‐boiling TIPS‐CC‐SF5 (TASP) as a versatile reagent
to access so far elusive SF5‐containing building blocks by less specialized laboratories …

The preparation of aliphatic SF 5-compounds (ie, RCH 2 CH 2 SF 5 where R is a
functionalized alkyl chain) using a Kolbe-based reaction was explored. In this …
