Abstract

Introduction of fluorine atom(s) in molecules strongly modifies their physical, chemical and physiological properties. 3 Such fluorinated compounds have found many applications in pharmaceutical and agrochemical fields. 4 Numerous fluorinating reagents and methodologies have been developed and both electrophilic 5 and nucleophilic 6 fluorinations have been reported in ionic liquids. Dehydroxy-fluorination is another very useful method to introduce fluorine selectively to a ...
