The mechanism of electrophilic fluorination remains controversial. At issue is whether the reaction proceeds via an S N 2 or single-electron transfer (SET) process. In support of the S N 2 mechanism, aryl Grignard reagents and aryllithiums give similar yields of fluorobenzene in combination with N-fluoro-o-benzenedisulfonimide (NFOBS), even though the tendencies of these reagents to ...
Electrophilic fluorinating reagents could in principle operate by electron transfer pathways or an S N 2 attack at fluorine. This distinction has not been decided. [2] By using a charge-spin separated probe, [3] it was possible to show that the electrophilic fluorination of stilbenes with Selectfluor proceeds through an SET/fluorine atom transfer mechanism.
Halogenation of benzene where X is the halogen, catalyst represents the catalyst (if needed) and HX represents the protonated base. A few types of aromatic compounds, such as phenol , will react without a catalyst , but for typical benzene derivatives with less reactive substrates, a Lewis acid is required as a catalyst .
Electrochemical fluorination (ECF), or electrofluorination, is a foundational organofluorine chemistry method for the preparation of fluorocarbon-based organofluorine compounds. [1] The general approach represents an application of electrosynthesis .
As mentioned above, aryl and alkenyl nonaflates are useful as electrophiles in palladium catalyzed cross coupling reactions. Their reactivity generally mirrors that of the more commonly encountered triflate electrophiles, but nonaflates tend to be less prone to hydrolysis to ketones (in the case of alkenyl sulfonates) and phenols (in the case of aryl sulfonates).

Radical fluorination is a type of fluorination reaction, complementary to nucleophilic and electrophilic approaches. [1] It involves the reaction of an independently generated carbon-centered radical with an atomic fluorine source and yields an organofluorine compound .
The electrophilic Br-Br molecule interacts with electron-rich alkene molecule to form a π-complex 1. Forming of a three-membered bromonium ion The alkene is working as an electron donor and bromine as an electrophile. The three-membered bromonium ion 2 consisted of two carbon atoms and a bromine atom forms with a release of Br −.
