Zinc phosphate is an inorganic compound with the formula Zn 3 (PO 4) 2. This white powder is widely used as a corrosion resistant coating on metal surfaces either as part of an electroplating process or applied as a primer pigment (see also red lead ).
In chemistry, a sulfonyl halide consists of a sulfonyl (>S(=O) 2) group singly bonded to a halogen atom. They have the general formula RSO 2 X, where X is a halogen.The stability of sulfonyl halides decreases in the order fluorides > chlorides > bromides > iodides, all four types being well known.
Sulfuryl fluoride (also spelled sulphuryl fluoride) is an inorganic compound with the formula SO 2 F 2. It is an easily condensed gas and has properties more similar to sulfur hexafluoride than sulfuryl chloride , being resistant to hydrolysis even up to 150 °C. [ 3 ]
Carbonyl compounds generally react with SF 4 to yield geminal difluorides. Reaction times tend to be on the order of hours and yields are moderate. [7] Fluorination of lactones can provide heterocyclic fluorides, although ring opening has been observed for γ-butyrolactone. The six-membered lactide does not experience ring opening. [8]
Trimethylsilyl enol ethers react with NfF in the presence of a substoichiometric fluoride source at 0 °C to ambient temperature to give alkenyl nonaflates in moderate to good yields. Dried tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride was the preferred fluoride source in one study, [6] but CsF has been used in difficult cases with excellent results. [7]
Alternative sulfonyl fluoride reagents like p-APMSF and HDSF, have altered access to native folded protein structures, and may react with serine enzymes that PMSF cannot efficiently react with. This altered selectivity between sulfonyl fluoride reagents has been used to classify and isolate particular types of serine enzymes. [7]
Methanesulfonyl fluoride (MSF) has long been known to be a potent inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), the enzyme that regulates acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter in both the central and peripheral nervous systems.
The modest acidity of carbons adjacent to the sulfonyl group has made sulfones useful for organic synthesis. Upon removal of the sulfonyl group with desulfonylation or reductive elimination, the net result is the formation of a carbon-carbon bond single or double bond between two unfunctionalized carbons, a ubiquitous motif in synthetic targets.
