✦ Synopsis


The conventional method for the synthesis of a-fluoroketones was the action of per&oryl fluoride on ketone enamines.

Though this reagent has been successful, mainly with steroidal ketones,') it has well-known and serious limitations. Thus the reagent can beueed only with very electron-rich olefins. En01 acetates for instance hardly react. Often chlorinated or oxygenated compounds are obtained rather than the required fluoroketones. 2) Moreover, the attractivenees of this reagent is reduced by the tendency for its reactions to be accompanied by violent explosiona.

A new method for fluorinating electron rich double bonds was developed with the introduction of fluoroxytrifluoromethane CP3OF. 3) In addition to this reagent, which is expensive and of limited availability, F2 can in particular circumstances act as a source of electronegative fluorine. 4)
