Abstract

Abstract Electrochemical fluorination of anisole furnished 2-and 4-fluoroanisoles in a 3: 1 ratio, guaiacol, and 4, 4′-dimethoxydiphenyl ether. Phenylacetonitrile alongside the fluorination in the ring suffered the transformation of the cyano group into a trifluoromethyl. 4- Bromobenzamide was fluorinated to a high conversion mostly in the ring to afford predominantly 4-bromo-3, 3, 6, 6-tetrafluoro-1, 4-cyclohexadienecarboxamide. 4- ...
