Abstract

Activated ketones such as α-oximinoketones can serve as starting materials for the preparation of acyl fluorides via a pull-and-push-driven fluorinative C-C bond cleavage. The use of diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST) derivatives led to a highly efficient and chemoselective reaction. The method is mild, fast, and scalable.
