- Validation of Arylphosphorothiolates as Convergent Substrates for Ar-SF 4Cl and Ar-SF 5Synthesis
-
In this manuscript we describe the oxidative fluorination of aryl phosphorothiolates to access Ar-SF4Cl compounds. These compounds serve as precursors for the highly coveted Ar-SF5 compounds. The use of phosphorothiolates as starting materials permits access to Ar-SF4Cl from a wide variety of available starting materials, namely boronic acids, diazonium salts, aryl iodides, thiophenols, or simple arenes. The protocol has been demonstrated for 10 examples and showed good tolerance to various functional groups. Finally, we demonstrated that AgBF4 can be used as a fluorinating agent, affording good yields of an Ar-SF5.

- Improved Access to Organo-Soluble Di- and Tetrafluoridochlorate(I)/(III) Salts
-
A facile one-pot gram-scale synthesis of tetraalkylammonium tetrafluoridochlorate(III) [cat][ClF4] ([cat]=[NEt3Me]+, [NEt4]+) is described. An acetonitrile solution of the corresponding alkylammonium chloride salt is fluorinated with diluted fluorine at low temperatures. The reaction proceeds via the [ClF2]? anion which is structurally characterized for the first time. The potential application of [ClF4]? salts as fluorinating agents is evaluated by the reaction with diphenyl disulfide, Ph2S2, to pentafluorosulfanyl benzene, PhSF5. The CN moieties in acetonitrile and [B(CN)4]? are transferred in CF3 groups. Exposure of carbon monoxide, CO, leads to the formation of carbonyl fluoride, COF2, and elemental gold is dissolved under the formation of tetrafluoridoaurate [AuF4]?.

- A Unified Strategy for Arylsulfur(VI) Fluorides from Aryl Halides: Access to Ar-SOF3 Compounds
-
A convenient protocol to selectively access various arylsulfur(VI) fluorides from commercially available aryl halides in a divergent fashion is presented. Firstly, a novel sulfenylation reaction with the electrophilic N-(chlorothio)phthalimide (Cl-S-Phth) and arylzinc reagents afforded the corresponding Ar-S-Phth compounds. Subsequently, the S(II) atom was selectively oxidized to distinct fluorinated sulfur(VI) compounds under mild conditions. Slight modifications on the oxidation protocol permit the chemoselective installation of 1, 3, or 4 fluorine atoms at the S(VI) center, affording the corresponding Ar-SO2F, Ar-SOF3, and Ar-SF4Cl. Of notice, this strategy enables the effective introduction of the rare and underexplored -SOF3 moiety into various (hetero)aryl groups. Reactivity studies demonstrate that such elusive Ar-SOF3 can be utilized as a linchpin for the synthesis of highly coveted aryl sulfonimidoyl fluorides (Ar-SO(NR)F).

- An improved method for the fluorination of arylsulfur chlorotetrafluorides to arylsulfur pentafluorides
-
A new method for the fluorination of arylsulfur chlorotetrafluorides to arylsulfur pentafluorides is described. The reaction is promoted by hydrogen fluoride generated from potassium hydrogen fluoride and trifluoroacetic acid which also serves as a solvent. The reaction is performed under mild conditions and uses substochiometric amounts of potassium hydrogen fluorides in certain cases. Recovery and reuse of trifluoroacetic acid was successfully demonstrated which makes this method safe, simple to use, and atom- and cost-effective.

- Discovery of practical production processes for arylsulfur pentafluorides and their higher homologues, bis- and tris(sulfur pentafluorides): Beginning of a new era of "super-trifluoromethyl" arene chemistry and its industry
-
Various arylsulfur pentafluorides, ArSF5, have long been desired in both academic and industrial areas, and ArSF5 compounds have attracted considerable interest in many areas such as medicines, agrochemicals, and other new materials, since the highly stable SF5 group is considered a "super-trifluoromethyl group" due to its significantly higher electronegativity and lipophilicity. This article describes the first practical method for the production of various arylsulfur pentafluorides and their higher homologues, bis- and tris(sulfur pentafluorides), from the corresponding diaryl disulfides or aryl thiols. The method consists of two steps: (Step 1) treatment of a diaryl disulfide or an aryl thiol with chlorine in the presence of an alkali metal fluoride, and (step 2) treatment of the resulting arylsulfur chlorotetrafluoride with a fluoride source, such as ZnF2, HF, and Sb(III/V) fluorides. The intermediate arylsulfur chlorotetrafluorides were isolated by distillation or recrystallization and characterized. The aspects of these new reactions are revealed and reaction mechanisms are discussed. As the method offers considerable improvement over previous methods in cost, yield, practicality, applicability, and large-scale production, the new processes described here can be employed as the first practical methods for the economical production of various arylsulfur pentafluorides and their higher homologues, which could then open up a new era of "super-trifluoromethyl" arene chemistry and its applications in many areas.
