Fluorinated organic compounds are widely used in scientific and industrial fields. Since the preparative methods for organofluorine compounds remain limited to a few procedures, new fluorinating agents and methodology are required. 1 Since diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST), a reagent converting aliphatic alcohols into alkyl fluorides, has been introduced into organic synthesis, 2 there have been several reports concerning new fluorinating methods ...
