A New Microscale Method for the Conversion of Phosphorus Oxyacids to Their Fluorinated Analogues, Using Cyanuric Fluoride in Solution and on Solid Support

Abstract

Cyanuric fluoride, in solution or loaded onto a Wang resin, is successfully used as a fluorinating agent for phosphorus oxy acids. The reaction is very efficient with high yields and easy workup procedures, thereby in general generating products in quantitative yields. The cyanuric fluoride is proven suitable for micromolar scale synthesis of analytical standards, particularly in its resin-bound form.
