Fluorine has quite unique properties and is often considered a sort of “magic element”, whose incorporation is able to bring about improvement and important modification

The presence of fluorine in organic molecules is often associated with unexpected properties. This article describes the influence of the smallest heteroelement on the rotational

This mini-review discusses why allylic monofluorides are important structural motifs and summarises the different methodologies available to date for their preparation. The synthe

Perfluorodiacyl peroxides are an important class of perfluorinated peroxides. Thermal decompositions of selected perfluorinated peroxides have been analyzed in terms of stability

Nitrogen-containing organofluorine compounds are appealing potentially bioactive substances because of the special properties that the fluorine atom imparts them. However, their p

Fluorinated analogues of natural pheromones can interfere in the communication system of the insects. Therefore, they may play a prominent role in the fight against pests in crop

ABSTRACT The fluorine’s effect on the molecular assemblage was discussed. The topics include optical resolution of the enantiomer mixtures of chiral trifluoromethylated compounds

Among the various strategies developed in recent years to recycle catalysts, fluorous catalysis, based on catalysts bearing perfluoralkyl chains, is emerging as one of the most po

A new, highly promising strategy in drug discovery, consisting of the replacement of the natural peptide or amide function by a xenobiotic trifluoroethylamine is discussed

It is very well known that separation of enantiomers, possessing identical physicochemical properties, required intervention of an external chiral element to provide for formation
