(Re)Investigation of the reactivity of uranium hexafluoride toward several organic functions at room temperature

The annual worldwide production of UF6 is very large and this compound is not used. Consequently, it could be interesting to find some applications as organic reagent. UF6 could be considered as an oxidizer of various functions. However, it seems also present some possibilities as a fluorinating reagent in mild conditions.

A useful conversion of alcohols to alkyl fluorides

A useful conversion of alcohols to alkyl fluorides via their fluoroformates is introduced. The fluoroformates are obtained in nearly quantitative yield from the alcohols by treatment with COF2 (generated in situ from bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate) in ether with KF as an added acid scavenger. The neat fluoroformates are cleaved to the fluorides by heating at 120-125°C using hexabutylguanidinium fluoride (HBGF) as the catalyst.
