Abstract

A number of alkyl and substituted alkyl fluorides has been prepared from the corresponding p-toluenesulfonic acid esters (tosylates) by reaction with potassium fluoride. Isomerization, extensive elimination and doubling of chain length, the common disadvantages of the reaction between alkyl halides and transition metal fluorides, were not encountered. The method constitutes a convenient and dependable laboratory synthesis of primary and ...
