Process for generating electrophiles from anions by reaction with electrophilic fluorinating agent
-
, (2008/06/13)
A process includes substituting a substituent on a substrate. The process includes reacting a salt of an anionic form of the substituent with an electrophilic fluorination agent to provide an electrophile containing a cationic form of the substituent. The electrophile is then electrophilically substituted on the substrate. In some aspects of the process, the substrate can be an aromatic or a non-aromatic. The process can be used for a variety of reactions having electrophilic mechanisms, including halogenation, thiocyanation and nitration.
