Fluorine uniquely affects the property of free of hydrogen bonds, have been developed. For example, organic molecules due to the fluorine atom’s blocking effect in tetrabutylammonium difluorotriphenylstannate [T1592], which metabolic transformations and mimicking of enzyme substrates, was reported by Gingrasas an alternative reagent to Bu4N • F, is and then increases the molecular lipophilicity to enhance non hygroscopic with excellent stability to heat and high solubility bioavailability. Approximately 30% of all agrochemicals and in organic solvents.2) Martines et al. synthesized gem- 20% of all pharmaceuticals contain fluorine.1) HMG-CoA fluorotriflate from aldehyde using T1592.3) reductase inhibitor fluorostatin (atorvastatin), antibiotic fluoroquinolone (levofloxacin), and antitumor fluoronucleoside F Ph (tegafur) are successful examples of the introduction of fluorine n Bu4N Ph Sn into organic molecules (Fig. 1). Therefore, fluorinating agents Ph F are useful tools for the synthesis of pharmaceutical and Tf2O OTf [T1592] F R CHO R CH R CH agricultural compounds. OTf OTf DAST [D1868] is used in a wide variety of synthetic processes O O O O for stereospecifically substituting a fluorine atom for a hydroxyl N F OH F 4) H HN group. Kozikowski et al. have developed the method of CH N 3 N N O N producing (-)-fluoro-myo-inositol from quebrachitol in two CH3 F OH O N O O 5) CH3 CH3 stages. They reported that in this method, D1868 reacts with HO OH either of two axial hydroxyl groups of a quebrachitol to form a Atorvastatin Levofloxacin Tegafur DAST intermediate which greatly increases the leaving ability of Fig. 1 Fluorinated bioactive compounds the hydroxyl group. This enables an easy nucleophilic displacement of the hydroxyl group by the fluoride anion Since there are few naturally occurring fluorine containing accompanied with steric inversion. D1868 is unstable to heat, compounds, it is necessary to fluorinate organic compounds at a and is drastically decomposed by heating. However, in general, certain stage of the syntheses. Though fluorine gas and the reactions using D1868 are completed in a short time at room hydrogen fluoride are used as fluorine sources, they are very temperature or lower temperature. toxic and corrosive and require special equipment and F techniques for handling them. Therefore, alternate fluorinating Et N S F agents have been developed, which are used in laboratories to OH Et OMe F OH OMe OMe F OH OH [D1868] easily introduce a fluorine atom at selected positions of the OH + OH OH F OH OH OH compounds. The fluorinating agents are roughly classified into HO OH HO two categories: nucleophilic and electrophilic. Nucleophilic OH OMe NEt2 - OH F S F F OH fluorinating agents are those where the fluoride anion serves as O OH + O OMe - OH F S F F OH a reaction active species. Electrophilic fluorinating agents are NEt2 HO OH those where the electron-deficient fluorine atom serves as a DAST intermediate OH reaction active species. In addition, a fluorinated building block BBr F 3 HO is used as a fluorine source, which has both a fluorine atom and HO OH OH a replaceable functional group in a molecule. 4-tert-Butyl-2,6-dimethylphenylsulfur trifluoride (FLUOLEAD™) 1.Nucleophilic Fluorinating Agents [B3664], which was first reported by Umemoto, is a novel The most basic nucleophilic fluorinating agent is hydrogen nucleophilic fluorinating agent.7) B3664 is a white crystalline fluoride which is used in large quantity for the industrial solid with high thermal stability, which has a 232 °C thermal production of fluorinated compounds. Hydrogen fluoride, decomposition temperature (by DSC analysis). Differing from however, is scarcely used in laboratories due to its toxic and other existing fluorinating agents, such as DAST, B3664 has corrosive properties and its low reactivity resulting from high H-F less fuming character. And the reactivity of B3664 to water is bond energy. Nucleophilic fluorinating agents such as KF, CsF slow, which makes it easier to handle in open air. [C2204], and Bu4N • F [T2754] are readily available. These Fluorinations of a hydroxyl or carbonyl group by B3664 afford fluorinating agents are hygroscopic, and unfortunately the the corresponding fluorinated compounds in good yields under a moisture in these substances forms strong hydrogen bonds with wide range of conditions (0 to 100 °C).

The fluorinating ability can CH3 be increased or decreased by introducing electron withdrawing CH3 SF3 groups or electron donating groups into the pyridine ring. For CH 3 example, the fluorinating ability increases in the order of a, b and CH3 c of the structures shown below. Suppression of side reactions OH [B3664] (1.5 eq.)

Carbocations can be electrophilic fluorinating agent for enols, silyl enol ethers, produced by oxidation of organic compounds. Consequently, the alkenes, stabilized carbanions, aromatic compounds, combined use of an oxidizing agent and a fluorinating agent organosulfur compounds, Grignard agents, etc.10) enables easy fluorination. In addition, selective fluorination becomes possible by selecting an oxidizing agent.
