General description

Diethylamino sulfur trifluoride (DAST) is a fluorinating reagent used in the synthesis of fluorinated compounds and ring-opening reactions.

Application

  • Fluorinating agent: reaction with alcohols and carbonyl compounds, Review
  • Review on nucleophilic fluorination.
  • Catalyst for Friedel-Crafts allylation using tertiary cyclopropyl silyl ethers and the rearrangement of homoallylic alcohols to unsaturated aldehydes.
  • Early introduction of a fluoromethyl group stabilizes the epoxide during further manipulations in the synthesis of 26-fluoro-epothilone.
  • Fluorinating agent for a variety of compounds, including thioethers, alkenols, and cyanohydrins.
  • Reagent for gem difluorination of ketopipecolinic acids.

Diethylaminosulfur trifluoride reacted with cyclic ketoximes bearing substituent(s) that can stabilize a carbocation to cause fluorinative fragmentation, affording fluorinated carbonitrile. Ketoximes lacking such substituents afforded complex mixtures. However, the introduction of a sulfur functionality, which can stabilize a carbocation and
