Abstract

Upon treatment with n-Bu4NH2F3 and 1,3-dibromo-5,5- dimethylhydantoin, various organic sulfides underwent a Pummerer-type rearrangement, followed by fluorination, to give α-fluoro sulfides. The fluoro-Pummerer rearrangement, when applied to RCH(SMe)CF2SMe, gave trifluoro sulfides RCF(SMe)CF2SMe. When an HF-pyridine reagent was used as the fluorinating agent, an oxidative desulfurization-fluorination reaction occurred depending on the structure of the substrates.
