MÉTODOS SELETIVOS DE FLUORAÇÃO DE MOLÉCULAS ORGÂNICAS

Presently, the world depends on a wide variety of new materials based on organofluorine compounds. These compounds can be used as surfactants, high resistance polymers, liquid crystals, agrochemicals, radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography, and drugs. However, the selective formation of C–F bonds remains a challenge. This study reviews our knowledge of organofluorine compounds and describes conventional and modern selective fluorination methods for obtaining these compounds. Here, we highlight the most common fluorination reagents and describe the fluorination reactions. This review is organized by the type of fluorine transfer: nucleophilic, electrophilic, and enzymatic
