Abstract
Fluoroalkyl-containing organic compounds have exhibited wide applications in the field of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and materials science due to their outstanding properties such as biological activity, metabolic stability, lipophilicity, excellent chemical and thermal stability. Therefore, various synthetic strategies have been developed for the construction of fluoroalkyl-containing compounds, using highly active fluorinating reagents and fluorinated building blocks. Recently, the use of easily available and inexpensive trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) and its anhydride analogues has attracted great attention to access numerous fluoroalkyl-containing compounds through cyclization and coupling reactions. In this review, we summarized the recent advances in the synthesis of fluoroalkylated compounds using fluoroalkyl anhydrides as reagents. This review aims to provide a reference for researchers on how to develop new synthetic straregies of fluorine-containing organic compounds and achieve kilograms or even tons preparation of fluorine-containing organic compounds using fluoroalkyl anhydrides.
