Expect the unexpected: The self‐stable salts 1, X=OTf, PF6, x=2, y=1, developed for electrophilic monofluoromethylation showed inherent selectivity for the O‐alkylation of enolates, thus providing access to monofluoromethyl ethers, which are difficult to obtain by the direct electrophilic fluoromethylation of alcohols. Salt 1, X=BF4, x=0, y=3, in contrast leads to C‐alkylated products.
出乎意料:为亲电单氟甲基化开发的自稳定盐1(X = OTf,PF 6,x = 2,y = 1)对烯醇盐的O-烷基化显示出固有的选择性,从而提供了与单氟甲基醚接触的途径通过醇的直接亲电氟甲基化难以获得。相反,盐1,X = BF 4,x = 0,y = 3导致C烷基化产物。
