Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Science Department of Organic Chemistry Ing. Yana Chernykh Sulfur-Based Reagents for Nucleophilic and Radical Introduction of Tetrafluoroethyl and Tetrafluoroethylene Groups Ph.D. Thesis Prague 2014 ABSTRACT This project was aimed at developing new methodologies for selective introduction of tetrafluoroethyl and tetrafluoroethylene groups into organic molecules. The study was focused on reactivities of fluorinated sulfones and sulfides as tetrafluoroalkylation reagents. In the Introduction part of the thesis, main aspects of organofluorine chemistry are outlined, illustrating beneficial effects of fluorine atoms on physical, chemical and biological properties of organic compounds. General synthetic methods for the selective introduction of fluorine atoms and fluoroalkyl groups to organic molecules are described. Particular attention is given to reactivity and applications of CF2CF2-containing compounds, indicating challenges in synthetic approaches toward tetrafluoroalkylation. The Results and discussion part describes reactivities of four new fluorinated organosulfur reagents as tetrafluoroethyl and tetrafluoroethylene building blocks. The application of these reagents as various carbanionic or radical synthons proved to be effective for the incorporation of CF2CF2...
