Zinc difluoromethanesulfinate, 95%

Application

Zinc difluoromethanesulfinate (DFMS) is part of a zinc sulfinate toolbox developed by Phil Baran for the simple and rapid diversification of heterocycles.†Practical and Innate Carbon-Hydrogen Functionalization of HeterocyclesDFMS is a new reagent for direct difluoromethylation of organic substrates via a radical process. This mild, operationally simple, chemoselective, and scalable difluoromethylation method is compatible with a range of nitrogen-containing heteroarene substrates of varying complexity as well as select classes of conjugated p−systems and thiols.†A New Reagent for Direct DifluoromethylationLearn More at the Professor and Product Portal of Professor Phil S.
