Abstract
PhenoFluorMix, a mixture of N,N'-1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)chloroimidazolium chloride and CsF, overcomes the challenges associated with hydrolysis of PhenoFluor. PhenoFluorMix does not hydrolyze, is readily available on decagram scale, and is storable in air. The reagent can be used for the deoxyfluorination of various phenols and heterocycles.
