Abstract

The use of a methanesulfonic acid/triethylamine trihydrofluoride combination for the direct hydrofluorination of methallyl-containing substrates is reported. Under those metal-free conditions that use readily available, cheap, and easy to handle reagents, a range of methallyl alkenes could be converted to their corresponding tertiary fluoride in up to 78% yield. Finally, a promising result for the adaptation of this chemistry to continuous flow conditions is reported.
