Compound 2 is soluble in hydrocarbon solvents and is a viable fluorinating agent. 2 is potentially more reactive than inorganic metal fluorides such as MgF2(s) or CaF2(s) as there is no need to overcome the high lattice-enthalpies for an onwards reaction. To demonstrate proof-of-concept, 2 was used to transfer PTFE-derived fluorine atoms to a series of silicon-, boron-, aluminium-, and carbon-based electrophiles. These reactions allow the creation of Si-F, B-F, Al-F and C-F bonds from 2. For example, 2 reacts with Me3SiCl to cleanly form Me3SiF (99 %). 2 can also be used to prepare tetrafluoroborate anions (e.g. [n-Bu4N][BF4]) from reaction with BF3 and [n-Bu4NCl] (95 %). 2 can be used to generate a molecular aluminium difluoride (99%) previously used in the synthesis of acyl fluorides (e.g benzoyl fluoride). Tetrafluoroborate anions find myriad uses in inorganic and organic synthesis, while acyl fluorides are versatile fluorine carriers which can act as a point of synthetic diversification to create numerous organofluorine products.
