1-Chloromethyl-4-fluoro-1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bis(tetrafluoroborate) or Selectfluor, a trademark of Air Products and Chemicals,[1] is a reagent in chemistry that is used as a fluorine donor. This compound is a derivative of the nucleophillic base DABCO. This colourless salt was first described in 1992[2] and has since been commercialized for use in organofluorine chemistry for electrophilic fluorination.
Preparation[]
Selectfluor is synthesized by the N-alkylation of diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) with dichloromethane, followed by ion exchange with sodium tetrafluoroborate (replacing the chloride counterion for the tetrafluoroborate). Finally, this salt is treated with elemental fluorine and sodium tetrafluoroborate:[2]
Mechanism[]
Electrophilic fluorinating reagents can operate via electron transfer pathways or an SN2 attack at fluorine.[3] By using a charge-spin separated probe,[4] it was possible to show that the electrophilic fluorination of stilbenes with Selectfluor proceeds through an SET/fluorine atom transfer mechanism.[5]
In addition to these electrophilic fluorinations, it has also been shown that Selectfluor can transfer fluorine to alkyl radicals.[6][7]
Applications[]
The conventional source of "electrophilic fluorine", i.e. the equivalent to the superelectrophile F+, is gaseous fluorine, which requires specialised equipment for manipulation. Selectfluor reagent is a salt, the use of which requires only routine procedures. Like F2, the salt delivers the equivalent of F+. It is mainly used in the synthesis of organofluorine compounds:[8][9][10][11]
Specialized applications[]
Selectfluor reagent also serves as a strong oxidant, a property that is useful in other reactions in organic chemistry. Oxidation of alcohols and phenols. As applied to electrophilic iodination, Selectfluor reagent activates the I–I bond in I2 molecule.[12]
