Abstract
Nucleophilic fluorination of secondary aliphatic substrates, especially of halides, still remains a challenge. Among the available reagents, TBAT belongs to one of the best choices due to its stability, affordable price and low toxicity. With the aim to improve its selectivity, we synthesized three analogues modified in the aryl part of the TBAT reagent with one or two electron donating methoxy groups or with one electron withdrawing trifluoromethyl group. All three reagents are air-stable compounds and their structure was confirmed by a single crystal X-ray analysis. In testing the reactivity and selectivity of the reagents with a library of secondary bromides, as well as of other selected primary and secondary substrates, we found that substitution with methoxy groups mostly improves both reactivity and selectivity compared to TBAT, while the substitution with trifluoromethyl group leads to inferior results. Difluorosilicates modified by more than two electron donating methoxy groups proved to be unstable and decomposed spontaneously to the HF2 - anion. DFT calculations of tetramethylammonium analogues of the studied reagents disclosed that the substitution of the phenyl group with the methoxy substituent lowers the transitions state energy of the decomposition to a fluorosilane-fluoride complex, while the substitution with the trifluoromethyl group has an opposite effect.

Abstract
TBAT (tetrabutylammonium difluorotriphenylsilicate) is an excellent homogeneous nucleophilic fluorination reagent, but a high excess of the reagent was reported to be essential. We hence optimized the reaction conditions and compared its nucleophilic fluorination reactivity with that of other common commercial nucleophilic fluorination reagents, such as anhydrous TBAF and TASF (tris(dimethylamino)sulfonium difluorotrimethylsilicate). As the substrates, we employed a standard set of primary and secondary octyl substrates under identical conditions. To eliminate the possibility of hydrogen fluoride elimination in the above reagents, we prepared four quaternary ammonium fluorides lacking β-elimination possibility in the hydrocarbon chain, transformed them to the corresponding difluorotriphenylsilicates, and compared their reactivity with that of the commercial reagents. Furthermore, attempts to isolate analogous tetrabutylammonium difluoromethyldiphenylsilicate or difluorodimethylphenylsilicate failed, as was confirmed by comparison of the published experimental data with computed 19F NMR spectra. Finally, we studied the transition states of decomposition of various tetramethylammonium methylphenyldifluorosilicates by DFT methods and found that their relative energies increase with an increasing number of phenyl groups. The formation of difluorosilicates is a nearly barrierless process.

Abstract
We review crown ether-facilitated nucleophilic reactions using metal salts, presenting the studies using kinetic measurements and quantum chemical methods. We focus on the mechanistic features, specifically on the contact ion-pair (CIP) mechanism of metal salts for nucleophilic processes promoted by crown ethers and derivatives. Experimental verification of the CIP form of the metal salt CsF complexed with [18-Crown-6] by H-NMR spectroscopy is described. The use of chiral crown ethers and derivatives for enantioselective nucleophilic processes is also discussed.

Abstract
The reactivity of the fluoride ion towards alkyl halides is highly dependent on the solvating environment. In polar aprotic solvents with large counter-ions is highly reactive and produces substantial E2 product, whereas in polar protic solvents leads to slow kinetics and high selectivity for SN2 reactions. The use of a more complex environment with stoichiometric addition of tert-butanol to acetonitrile solvent is able to module the reactivity and selectivity of tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF). In the present work, we have performed a detailed theoretical analysis of this complex reaction system by density functional theory, continuum solvation model, and including explicit tert-butanol molecules. A kinetic model based on the free energy profile was also used to predict the reactivity and selectivity. The results indicated that the TBAF(tert-butanol) complex plays the key role to increase the SN2 selectivity, whereas higher aggregates are not relevant. The E2 product is formed exclusively via free TBAF, because the solvating tert-butanol in the TBAF(tert-butanol) complex inhibits the E2 pathway. Our analysis suggests that diols or tetraols could produce an improved selectivity.

Abstract
AIMS A simple, transition-metal-free C-S coupling protocol for the synthesis of aryl thioethers is reported Background: Sulfur-containing moieties are ubiquitous in pharmaceutical drugs and materials and therefore methods for their construction are of great importance. One approach entails the catalytic coupling of an aryl halohydrocarbon with a thiol, but the transition metal catalysts usually used are prone to poisoning by participating sulfur species and efficient catalysis is usually only achieved after complex ligand optimization. OBJECTIVE New transition-metal-free approaches to the synthesis of C-S bonds are urgently need Method: We screened the reaction conditions such as alkali, crown ether, solvent, temperature, etc., tested the compatibility of the reaction substrate, and analyzed the mechanism process. RESULT the optimized reaction conditions were determined to be 1.0 equiv of aryl halides and 1.2 equiv of thiols at 110 ℃ in toluene with K2CO3 (1.5 equiv) as a base, promoted by 10 mol% dicyclohexano-18-crown-6. Up to 33 examples of thioethers were synthesized under transition-metal-free conditions in good to excellent yields. CONCLUSION we have developed a simple and efficient method for the C-S cross-coupling of a wide variety of (hetero)aryl halides and thiols mediated by dicyclohexano-18-crown-6 and without the need for transition-metal catalyst. In addition, the preparation and gram-scale experiments of a variety of drug molecules further verify the practicability of our developed method.

Abstract
Phase-transfer catalysis (PTC) is one of the most powerful catalytic manifolds for asymmetric synthesis. Chiral cationic or anionic PTC strategies have enabled a variety of transformations, yet studies on the use of insoluble inorganic salts as nucleophiles for the synthesis of enantioenriched molecules have remained elusive. A long-standing challenge is the development of methods for asymmetric carbon-fluorine bond formation from readily available and cost-effective alkali metal fluorides. In this Perspective, we describe how H-bond donors can provide a solution through fluoride binding. We use examples, primarily from our own research, to discuss how hydrogen bonding interactions impact fluoride reactivity and the role of H-bond donors as phase-transfer catalysts to bring solid-phase alkali metal fluorides in solution. These studies led to hydrogen bonding phase-transfer catalysis (HB-PTC), a new concept in PTC, originally crafted for alkali metal fluorides but offering opportunities beyond enantioselective fluorination. Looking ahead, the unlimited options that one can consider to diversify the H-bond donor, the inorganic salt, and the electrophile, herald a new era in phase-transfer catalysis. Whether abundant inorganic salts of lattice energy significantly higher than those studied to date could be considered as nucleophiles, e.g., CaF2, remains an open question, with solutions that may be found through synergistic PTC catalysis or beyond PTC.

Abstract
The environment enclosing an ionic species has a critical effect on its reactivity. In a more general sense, medium effects are not limited to the solvent, but involve the counter ion effect (ion pairing), formation of larger aggregates and structured environment as provided by the host in the case of host-guest complexes. In this review, a general view of the medium effect on anion-molecule reactions is presented. Nucleophilic substitution reactions of aliphatic (SN2) and aromatic (SNAr) systems, as well as elimination reactions (E2), are the focus of the discussion. In particular, nucleophilic fluorination with KF, CsF and tetraalkylammonium fluoride was used as the main model, because of the importance of this kind of reaction and the recent advances in the study of these systems. The solvent effect, ion pairing, formation of aggregates and formation of complexes with crown ethers, cryptands and calixarenes are discussed. For a deeper insight into the medium effect, many results of reliable theoretical calculations in close agreement with experiments were chosen as examples.

Abstract
Methylated bis-triethylene glycolic crown-5-calix[4]arene (M-BTC5A) as a phase-transfer catalyst showed the best performance among other analogues and even conventional Kryptofix 222 in the nucleophilic aromatic 18F-fluorination of diaryliodonium tosylate precursors owing to (i) the efficient release of reactive "naked" [18F]fluoride, (ii) the high stabilization of the precursor in the reaction, and, presumably, (iii) the ease of access between the precursor and the K18F/M-BTC5A complex facilitated by π-π interactions. [18F]Flumazenil was produced in high radiochemical yield using M-BTC5A.

Abstract
The activation of potassium fluoride for nucleophilic fluorination of alkyl halides is an important challenge because of the high lattice energy of this salt and its low solubility in many polar aprotic solvents. Crown ethers have been used for increasing the solubilization of KF during several decades. Nevertheless, these macrocycles are not enough to produce a high reaction rate. In this work, theoretical methods were used for designing a synergic combination of bulky diols with crown ethers able to accelerate this kind of reaction. The calculations have predicted that the bulky diol 1,4-Bis(2-hydroxy-2-propyl)benzene, which has distant hydroxyl groups, is able to catalyze nucleophilic fluorination in combination with 18-crown-6 via two hydrogen bonds to the SN2 transition state. Experimental studies following the theoretical predictions have confirmed the catalytic effect and the estimated kinetic data point out that the bulky diol at 1 mol L-1 in combination with 18-crown-6 is able to produce an 18-fold increase in the reaction rate in relation to crown ether catalysis only. The reaction produces 46% yield of fluorination after 24 h at moderate temperature of 82 °C, with minimal formation of the side elimination product. Thus, this work presents an improved method for fluorination with KF salt.

Abstract
Due to the tremendous interest in carbon-fluorine bond-forming reactions, research efforts in this area have been dedicated to the development of facile processes to synthesize small fluorine-containing organic molecules. Among others, PET (Positron Emission Tomography) is one of the most important applications of fluorine chemistry. Recognizing the specific requirements of PET processes, some groups have focused on fluorination reactions using alkali metal fluorides, particularly through SN2-type reactions. However, a common "misconception" about the role of protic solvents and hydrogen bonding interactions in this class of reactions has hampered the employment of these excellent promoters. Herein, we would like to review recent discoveries in this context, showing straightforward nucleophilic fluorination reactions using alkali metal fluorides promoted by protic solvents. Simultaneous dual activation of reacting partners by intermolecular hydrogen bonding and the enhancement of the "effective fluoride nucleophilicity", which is Nature's biocatalytic approach with the fluorinase enzyme, are the key to this unprecedentedly successful nucleophilic fluorination.
