Beyond the Balz-Schiemann reaction: the utility of tetrafluoroborates and boron trifluoride as nucleophilic fluoride sources.

TL;DR: The development by Ohmori and co-workers of a fluorinative variant of the Mitsunobu reaction, involving the electrooxidative generation and subsequent thermal decomposition of alkoxytriphenylphosphonium tetrafluoroborates, allowing for the conversion of alcohols to the corresponding alkyl fluorides with inversion of configuration.

Enantioselective Ring Opening of Epoxides with Silicon Tetrachloride in the Presence of a Chiral Lewis Base: Mechanism Studies

TL;DR: The enantioselective ring opening of meso- epoxides with silicon tetrachloride under catalysis by chiral phos- phoramides affords enantiomerically enriched chloro- hydrins in excellent yields as discussed by the authors.

Fluorination with ionic liquid EMIMF(HF)2.3 as mild HF source

TL;DR: In this paper, an ionic liquid, 3-ethyl-1-methyimidazolium oligo hydrogen fluoride (EMIMF(HF) 2.3 ), which is stable in air and moisture, can be used as a hydrogen fluoride equivalent for some fluorination reactions; it does not require an aqueous work-up.

Nouvelle voie de synthese d'acides amines monofluores

TL;DR: In this paper, the ring opening of the glycidonitriles (IIa-e) by HF/pyridine leads to the fluorocyanohydrins (IIIa-E), which upon acidic hydrolysis afford the βp-fluoro-α-amino acids (Va-e).
