“…Herein, we report the fluorination of a series of aliphatic, benzylic, and allylic substrates using a polycomponent catalytic system involving commercially available Selectfluor, the putative radical precursor Nhydroxyphthalimide (NHPI), an anionic phase-transfer catalyst (KB(C 6 F 5 ) 4 ), and a copper(I) bisimine complex. [9,10] For the purposes of this study, we chose first to focus our efforts on the well-characterized adamantane system 1 and its fluorinated derivatives. Initial catalyst screening employed a variety of transition-metal salts, Selectfluor, and adamantane in dry MeCN (1 mL) and was stirred for 24 h at room temperature.…”
