This review summarizes the progress in the fluorination and fluoroalkylation of electron‐rich
systems with diverse fluorine (F) and fluoroalkyl (Rfn) reagents employing hypervalent …

Short aliphatic groups are prevalent in bioactive small molecules and play an essential role
in regulating physicochemistry and molecular recognition phenomena. Delineating their …

Herein, we report a modular catalytic technique that streamlines the preparation of gem-
difluoroalkanes from unactivated sp 3 precursors. The method is characterized by its …

The clinical success of α, α-difluorocyclopropanes, combined with limitations in the existing
synthesis portfolio, inspired the development of an operationally simple, organocatalysis …

This review will cover the importance of and most recent approaches toward geminal
difluoroalkyl groups. Transition metal-mediated, photochemical, organocatalytic, and other …

Herein we report the design and synthesis of hypervalent trifluoromethylthio-iodine (III)
reagent 1 and the elucidation of its structure by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray …

Abstract A catalysis‐based regioselective 1, 4‐fluorofunctionalization of trifluoromethyl
substituted 1, 3‐dienes has been developed to access compact, highly functionalized …

Hypervalent iodine reagents have been extensively employed in various types of oxidative
organic reactions including oxidative coupling/cyclization, bifunctionalization of olefins and …

A geminal difluorination of alkenes based on I (I)/I (III) catalysis is disclosed, which is
compatible with a range of electronically and substitutionally diverse styrenes (27 examples …

Understanding the role of boranes in hypervalent iodine chemistry will open up new
reactivities which can be utilised in organic synthesis. Due to similar reactivities, λ3-iodanes …
