A Fruitful Decade of Organofluorine Chemistry: New Reagents and Reactions

The development of synthetic methods for the introduction of the fluorine atom and fluoroalklyl groups into organic molecules has gained increased attention. Synthetic organic chemists have recently jumped into the field of organofluorine chemistry and have thus made significant contributions. Furthermore, these newly developed methods are typically safer and more effective than the traditional methods. In this review, we will summarize the representative contributions of new reagents and reactions developed in the past decade. [GRAPHICS] .
