Abstract

A novel synthetic method of α-fluoroacetophenones directly from acetophenones via one-pot reactions of bromination and fluorination is reported. Based on the nucleophilic fluorination, using 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBDMH) as brominating reagent, triethylamine tris(hydrogen fluoride) as fluorinating reagent, α-fluoroacetophenones were obtained from acetophenones in 82%~87% total yields, except p- and m-nitroacetophenones. The proposed method has a high application value, because of its simplicity, low cost and good yields.
