Abstract
The first assortment of achiral pentafluorosulfanylated cyclobutanes (SF5-CBs) are now synthetically accessible through strain-release functionalization of [1.1.0]bicyclobutanes (BCBs) using SF5Cl. Methods for both chloropentafluorosulfanylation and hydropentafluorosulfanylation of sulfone-based BCBs are detailed herein, as well as proof-of-concept that the logic extends to tetrafluoro(aryl)sulfanylation, tetrafluoro(trifluoromethyl)sulfanylation, and three-component pentafluorosulfanylation reactions. The methods presented enable isolation of both syn and anti isomers of SF5-CBs, but we also demonstrate that this innate selectivity can be overridden in chloropentafluorosulfanylation; that is, an anti-stereoselective variant of SF5Cl addition across sulfone-based BCBs can be achieved by using inexpensive copper salt additives. Considering the SF5 group and CBs have been employed individually as nonclassical bioisosteres, structural aspects of these unique SF5-CB "hybrid isosteres" were then contextualized using SC-XRD. From a mechanistic standpoint, chloropentafluorosulfanylation ostensibly proceeds through a curious polarity mismatch addition of electrophilic SF5 radicals to the electrophilic sites of the BCBs. Upon examining carbonyl-containing BCBs, we also observed rare instances whereby radical addition to the 1-position of a BCB occurs. The nature of the key C(sp3)-SF5 bond formation step - among other mechanistic features of the methods we disclose - was investigated experimentally and with DFT calculations. Lastly, we demonstrate compatibility of SF5-CBs with various downstream functionalizations.

Abstract
A practical synthetic path for the preparation of trans-CF3SF4-substituted amines has been described. Primary and secondary amines bearing a variety of different functional groups including amino acids, cyclic amines, and nucleosides were prepared. The desired amines were synthesized under mild conditions. The influence of the CF3SF4-group on the pKa and log D of a standard amine was established. The unusual conformation of the trans-CF3SF4-substituted tosylate has been verified via its crystal structure.

Abstract
We leveraged the recent increase in synthetic accessibility of SF5 Cl and Ar-SF4 Cl compounds to combine chemistry of the SF5 and SF4 Ar groups with strain-release functionalization. By effectively adding SF5 and SF4 Ar radicals across [1.1.1]propellane, we accessed structurally unique bicyclopentanes, bearing two distinct elements of bioisosterism. Upon evaluating these "hybrid isostere" motifs in the solid state, we measured exceptionally short transannular distances; in one case, the distance rivals the shortest nonbonding C⋅⋅⋅C contact reported to date. This prompted SC-XRD and DFT analyses that support the notion that a donor-acceptor interaction involving the "wing" C-C bonds is playing an important role in stabilization. Thus, these heretofore unknown structures expand the palette for highly coveted three-dimensional fluorinated building blocks and provide insight to a more general effect observed in bicyclopentanes.

Abstract
In synthetic method development, the most rewarding path is seldom a straight line. While our initial entry into pentafluorosulfanyl (SF5) chemistry did not go according to plan (due to inaccessibility of reagents such as SF5Cl at the time), a “detour” led us to establish mild and inexpensive oxidative fluorination conditions that made aryl‐SF5 compound synthesis more accessible. The method involved the use of potassium fluoride and trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCICA)—a common swimming pool disinfectant—as opposed to previously employed reagents such as F2, XeF2, HF, and Cl2. Thereafter, curiosity led us to explore applications of TCICA/KF as a more general approach to the synthesis of fluorinated Group 15, 16, and 17 heteroatoms in organic scaffolds; this, in turn, prompted SC‐XRD, VT‐NMR, computational, and physical organic studies. Ultimately, it was discovered that TCICA/KF can be used to synthesize SF5Cl, enabling SF5 chemistry in an unexpected way.

Abstract
A general method for ortho-functionalization of pentafluorosulfanyl arenes has been developed. ortho-Lithiation with lithium tetramethylpiperidide at -60 °C in the presence of silicon, germanium, and tin electrophiles affords trapped products in moderate to high yields. Precise temperature regimes and the presence of electrophiles during lithiation are important for successful reactions, since the pentafluorosulfanyl group acts as a competent leaving group at temperatures above -40 °C. Fluoro, bromo, iodo, enolizable keto, cyano, ester, amide, and unsubstituted amino functionalities are compatible with the reaction conditions. Conversion of 2-dimethylsilylpentafluorosulfanyl benzene to 2-halosubstituted derivatives, useful as starting materials in cross-coupling chemistry, was also demonstrated.

Abstract
Fluorine (19F) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is severely limited by a low signal-to noise ratio (SNR), and tapping it for 19F drug detection in vivo still poses a significant challenge. However, it bears the potential for label-free theranostic imaging. Recently, we detected the fluorinated dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) inhibitor teriflunomide (TF) noninvasively in an animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS) using 19F MR spectroscopy (MRS). In the present study, we probed distinct modifications to the CF3 group of TF to improve its SNR. This revealed SF5 as a superior alternative to the CF3 group. The value of the SF5 bioisostere as a 19F MRI reporter group within a biological or pharmacological context is by far underexplored. Here, we compared the biological and pharmacological activities of different TF derivatives and their 19F MR properties (chemical shift and relaxation times). The 19F MR SNR efficiency of three MRI methods revealed that SF5-substituted TF has the highest 19F MR SNR efficiency in combination with an ultrashort echo-time (UTE) MRI method. Chemical modifications did not reduce pharmacological or biological activity as shown in the in vitro dihydroorotate dehydrogenase enzyme and T cell proliferation assays. Instead, SF5-substituted TF showed an improved capacity to inhibit T cell proliferation, indicating better anti-inflammatory activity and its suitability as a viable bioisostere in this context. This study proposes SF5 as a novel superior 19F MR reporter group for the MS drug teriflunomide.

Abstract
The synthesis of aliphatic (pentafluoro-λ6-sulfanyl)(SF5)-substituted compounds is more challenging than that of the related CF3-substituted analogues. Previous investigations of [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangements of γ-SF5-substituted allylic alcohols failed to yield 3-SF5-substituted carboxylic acid derivatives. Herein, we present the synthesis of a series of 1-SF5-alk-1-en-3-ols and our efforts to apply them in Johnson-Claisen, ester enolate-Claisen, and Ireland-Claisen rearrangements. Unfortunately, these reactions failed to include the 1-SF5-substituted 1,2-double bond, although successful reactions of analogous CF3-allylic alcohols were reported. Further experiments revealed that bulkiness rather than electronic properties of the SF5 group prevented [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangements. Indeed, the introduction of a competing second vinyl group into the system (1-SF5-penta-1,4-dien-3-ol) confirmed that a Johnson-Claisen rearrangement was successful (92% yield of methyl 7-SF5-hepta-4,6-dienoate) with incorporation of the unsubstituted 4,5-double bond while the 1-SF5-substituted 1,2-double bond remained unchanged. Efforts to apply 1-(SF5CF2)-substituted 1,2-double bond systems, which are similar to CF3 analogues in steric requirements, in Johnson-Claisen or ester enolate-Claisen rearrangements failed because of the instability of the SF5CF2 substituent under various reaction conditions. On the other hand, when the SF5 group was separated from the reaction center by a CH2 group instead (5-SF5-pent-3-en-2-ol), Johnson-Claisen rearrangements using six orthoesters provided the target 2-substituted 3-(CH2SF5)-hex-4-enoates in 55-76% yields as ∼1 : 1 mixtures of diastereomers. As an example to demonstrate the utility of these products, methyl 3-(CH2SF5)-hex-4-enoate was reduced, and the formed alcohol was oxidized to the aldehyde. Finally, initial experiments showed that the synthetic sequence developed for SF5 compounds is also applicable for analogous CF3-substituted allylic alcohols (5-CF3-pent-3-en-2-ol) and their Johnson-Claisen rearrangement.

Abstract
Trypanothione reductase (TR) is a key enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of trypanothione, an antioxidant dithiol that protects Trypanosomatid parasites from oxidative stress induced by mammalian host defense systems. TR is considered an attractive target for the development of novel anti-parasitic agents as it is essential for parasite survival but has no close homologue in humans. We report here the identification of spiro-containing derivatives as inhibitors of TR from Trypanosoma brucei (TbTR), the parasite responsible for Human African Trypanosomiasis. The hit series, identified by high throughput screening, was shown to bind TbTR reversibly and to compete with the trypanothione (TS2) substrate. The prototype compound 1 from this series was also found to impede the growth of Trypanosoma brucei parasites in vitro. The X-ray crystal structure of TbTR in complex with compound 1 solved at 1.98 Å allowed the identification of the hydrophobic pocket where the inhibitor binds, placed close to the catalytic histidine (His 461’) and lined by Trp21, Val53, Ile106, Tyr110 and Met113. This new inhibitor is specific for TbTR and no activity was detected against the structurally similar human glutathione reductase (hGR). The central spiro scaffold is known to be suitable for brain active compounds in humans thus representing an attractive starting point for the future treatment of the central nervous system stage of T. brucei infections. Trypanosoma brucei is a parasite responsible for neglected pathologies such as human African trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness. This disease is endemic in sub-Saharan Africa, with 70 million people at risk of infection. Current treatments for this type of disease are limited by their toxicity, administration in endemic countries and treatment resistance. Therapies against infectious diseases typically rely on targeting one or more components of the parasite that are not present in humans to ensure the best possible therapeutic window. In this case we aimed at targeting the Trypanosoma brucei trypanothione reductase (TR), one enzyme that synthesize the reduced trypanothione a key molecule for preserving the parasite redox balance. This enzyme does not exist in humans that have glutathione instead of trypanothione. Past attempts to identify novel inhibitors of this target has failed to generate drug-like molecules. To overcome this limitation we employed a recent, higher quality, TR activity assay to test a collection of compounds previously reported to be active against these parasites. This approach led to the identification and validation of a new chemotype with a unique mode of inhibition of TR. This chemical series is a drug-like starting point, in fact its core (spiro) is present in drugs approved for human use.

Abstract
The influence of pentafluorosulfanylation on biological activity has been revealed in numerous comparative studies of biologically active compounds, but considerably less is known about the influence of pentafluorosulfanylation on reactivity. Among the distinctive properties of the pentafluorosulfanyl group is the profound dipole moment that results from introduction of this substituent. It has been shown that dipolar effects coupled with the steric demand of the SF5 group may be employed to influence the stereochemistry of reactions, especially those processes with significant charge separation in the transition state. The Staudinger ketene-imine cycloaddition reaction is an ideal platform for investigation of dipolar control of diastereoselectivity by the pentafluorosulfanyl group.

Abstract
The tropical diseases human African trypanosomiasis, Chagas disease, and the various forms of leishmaniasis are caused by parasites of the family of trypanosomatids. These protozoa possess a unique redox metabolism based on trypanothione and trypanothione reductase (TR), making TR a promising drug target. We report the optimization of properties and potency of cyclohexylpyrrolidine inhibitors of TR by structure-based design. The best inhibitors were freely soluble and showed competitive inhibition constants (Ki ) against Trypanosoma (T.) brucei TR and T. cruzi TR and in vitro activities (half-maximal inhibitory concentration, IC50 ) against these parasites in the low micromolar range, with high selectivity against human glutathione reductase. X-ray co-crystal structures confirmed the binding of the ligands to the hydrophobic wall of the "mepacrine binding site" with the new, solubility-providing vectors oriented toward the surface of the large active site.

Abstract
The electronic properties and relatively small size of fluorine endow it with considerable versatility as a bioisostere and it has found application as a substitute for lone pairs of electrons, the hydrogen atom, and the methyl group while also acting as a functional mimetic of the carbonyl, carbinol, and nitrile moieties. In this context, fluorine substitution can influence the potency, conformation, metabolism, membrane permeability, and P-gp recognition of a molecule and temper inhibition of the hERG channel by basic amines. However, as a consequence of the unique properties of fluorine, it features prominently in the design of higher order structural metaphors that are more esoteric in their conception and which reflect a more sophisticated molecular construction that broadens biological mimesis. In this Perspective, applications of fluorine in the construction of bioisosteric elements designed to enhance the in vitro and in vivo properties of a molecule are summarized.

Abstract
The success of fluorinated molecules in drug design has led medicinal chemists to search for new fluorine-containing substituents. A major recently developed group is the pentafluorosulfanyl group. This group is stable under physiological conditions and displays unique physical and chemical properties. There are currently few synthetic methods to install the SF5 group, yet efforts to integrate this group into lead optimization continue unabated. Typically, the SF5 group has been used as a replacement for trifluoromethyl, tert-butyl, halogen, or nitro groups. In this review, the use of the SF5 group as a bioisosteric replacement for each of these three functionalities is compared and contrasted across various groups of biologically active molecules. The organization and presentation of these data should be instructive to medicinal chemists considering to design synthetic strategies to access SF5 -substituted molecules.

Abstract
The pentafluorosulfanyl (SF5) group is more electronegative, lipophilic and sterically bulky relative to the well-explored trifluoromethyl (CF3) group. As such, the SF5 group could offer access to pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and optoelectronic materials with novel properties. Here, the first synthesis of phthalocyanines (Pcs), a class of compounds used as dyes and with potential as photodynamic therapeutics, with a SF5 group directly attached on their peripheral positions is disclosed. The key for this work is the preparation of a series of SF5-containing phthalonitriles, which was beautifully regio-controlled by a stepwise cyanation via ortho-lithiation/iodination from commercially available pentafluorosulfanyl arenes. The macrocyclization of the SF5-containing phthalonitriles to SF5-substituted Pcs required harsh conditions with the exception of the synthesis of β-SF5-substituted Pc. The regiospecificity of the newly developed SF5-substituted Pcs observed by UV/Vis spectra and fluorescence quantum yields depend on the peripheral positon of the SF5 group.

Abstract
Pyridine promotes dediazoniation of aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborates. The formed aryl radicals were trapped with B2pin2, iodine, or tetrahydrofuran to afford boronic esters, iodobenzenes and benzenes, respectively. The application to the synthesis of (pentafluorosulfanyl)phenylboronic esters, iodo(pentafluorosulfanyl)benzenes and (pentafluorosulfanyl)benzene is shown.

Abstract
The role of fluorine in drug design and development is expanding rapidly as we learn more about the unique properties associated with this unusual element and how to deploy it with greater sophistication. The judicious introduction of fluorine into a molecule can productively influence conformation, pKa, intrinsic potency, membrane permeability, metabolic pathways, and pharmacokinetic properties. In addition, (18)F has been established as a useful positron emitting isotope for use with in vivo imaging technology that potentially has extensive application in drug discovery and development, often limited only by convenient synthetic accessibility to labeled compounds. The wide ranging applications of fluorine in drug design are providing a strong stimulus for the development of new synthetic methodologies that allow more facile access to a wide range of fluorinated compounds. In this review, we provide an update on the effects of the strategic incorporation of fluorine in drug molecules and applications in positron emission tomography.

Abstract
Novel reagents for the electrophilic introduction of pentafluorosulfanyl (SF5) arenes into target molecules are disclosed. Unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salts 1 having SF5-arenes were synthesized by a one-pot process from iodo-SF5-benzenes 2 in good yields. The SF5-aryliodonium salts 1 were found to be efficient for the electrophilic SF5-arylation of carbon and heterocentered nucleophiles to furnish the corresponding substituted SF5-arenes in good to high yields.

Abstract
Introduction of novel and diverse functional groups in drug discovery is always seen with hesitancy until good activity and low toxicity characteristics are proven. The introduction of fluorine in drug-like compounds is now a well-accepted strategy in medicinal chemistry. However, polyfluoroalkyl groups, with the exception of trifluoromethyl substituents, are not well explored yet. Our aim is to show to the readers how polyfluorinated groups can be beneficial to the properties of pharmaceutically active compounds by highlighting the structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies that led to the selection of polyfluorinated moieties as key structural features. Despite the fact that the use of higher polyfluoroalkyl/aryl moieties is still in its infancy, we believe that they will soon acquire the same importance of their lower parents.

Abstract
The tert-butyl group is a common motif in medicinal chemistry. Its incorporation into bioactive compounds is often accompanied by unwanted property modulation, such as increased lipophilicity and decreased metabolic stability. Several alternative substituents are available for the drug discovery process. Herein, physicochemical data of two series of drug analogues of bosentan and vercirnon are documented as part of a comparative study of tert-butyl, pentafluorosulfanyl, trifluoromethyl, bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanyl, and cyclopropyl-trifluoromethyl substituents.

Abstract
A series of new 2,4-diaryl-1,3-chalcogen azoles having pentafluorosulfanyl SF5 functional groups has been prepared by means of the two-component cyclization of the selenoamide or thioamide with α-bromoketones. The selenoamides or thioamides were obtained from the reaction of Woollins' reagent or Lawesson's reagent with 4-pentafluorosulfanylbenzonitrile, followed by hydrolysis with water. All new compounds were characterized by (1)H, (13)C, (77)Se, (19)F NMR spectroscopy, and accurate mass measurement. X-ray crystal structure analysis of the selenoamide, thioamide, and 2,4-diarylpentafluorosulfanyl-1,3-chalcogen azoles reveal that the selenoamide and thioamide have very similar structural features along with similar intermolecular interactions such as the π-π stacking and the weak N-H···E (E = S or Se) hydrogen bonding. The 2,4-diarylpentafluorosulfanyl-1,3-chalcogen azoles show the newly formed five-membered N(1)-C(2)-E(3)-C(4)-C(5) ring is either perfectly planar (and coplanar with two peripheral aryl ring planes) or near-planar. The π-π intermolecular interactions and the weak C-H···π and C-H···X (X = Br, F, O) hydrogen bonding are discussed in the cases of 2,4-diarylpentafluorosulfanyl-1,3-chalcogen azoles.
