Aliphatic sulfonyl fluoride synthesis <i>via</i> reductive decarboxylative fluorosulfonylation of aliphatic carboxylic acid NHPI esters

Abstract

A general and efficient approach to various aliphatic sulfonyl fluorides by the reductive decarboxylative fluorosulfonylation of aliphatic carboxylic acids via a radical sulfur dioxide insertion and fluorination strategy was developed.
