Organo-fluorine chemistry IV

The introduction of fluorine into organic molecules is widely practised particularly when tuning the properties of molecules for specialist functions. Fluorine substitution finds a prominent role in pharmaceutical development, in governing bioactivity in a wide range of agrochemical products, in soft materials chemistry such as liquid crystals, in photoresist polymers, self-assembling monolayers and in positron emission tomography. Allied to this breadth of activity is a steady development in the number and range of fluorination reagents and methods. This Thematic Series aims to provide an insight into these developments.
