The reactions of 1-phenyl-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (4) with methoxide and phenoxide ions in DMSO and DMSO–methanol solutions have been investigated. MeO− gives rise to a 1,3 adduct through kinetic control and a 1,1 adduct through thermodynamic control. These processes persist also in the reaction of 4 with potassium phenoxide in DMSO–methanol. However, reaction of 4 with potassium phenoxide in DMSO gives rise to a 1,3 adduct as the only observed species in which phenoxide is bonded to the nitroaromatic moiety via the para phenoxy carbon, in accord with previous observations on the ambident reactivity of phenoxide ion. The results are considered in terms of various steric and electronic effects and it is concluded that F-strain, relief of steric compression, and delocalizability considerations play dominant roles in accounting for the observed reaction course.

Vinyl fluorides play an important role in drug development as they serve as bioisosteres for peptide bonds and are found in a range of biologically active molecules. The discovery of safe, general and practical procedures to prepare vinyl fluorides remains an important goal and challenge for synthetic chemistry. Here we introduce an inexpensive and easily-handled reagent and report simple, scalable, and metal-free protocols for the regioselective and stereodivergent hydrofluorination of alkynes to access both the E and Z isomers of vinyl fluorides. These conditions were suitable for a diverse collection of alkynes, including several highly-functionalized pharmaceutical derivatives. Mechanistic and DFT studies support C–F bond formation through a vinyl cation intermediate, with the (E)- and (Z)-hydrofluorination products forming under kinetic and thermodynamic control, respectively.<br>
