The selective incorporation of fluorine into organic molecules has advanced in dramatic ways over the last 30 years.[1] Although arene [2] and alkyne [3] fluorination using metal catalysis has received much attention, the corresponding methods for metal-catalyzed alkane fluorination remain only a promising goal [Eq.(1)].[4] To date, the most notable methods for alkane fluorination [5] involve the use of stoichiometric quantities of difficult-to- ...
