Organic reactions of fluoro-oxy-compounds. Fluorination of griseofulvin

Abstract
Fluorination of griseofulvin (I) with trifluorofluoro-oxymethane affords 5-fluorogriseofulvin (2)(major product), 3′-fluorogriseofulvin (3), and 3′,5-difluorogriseofulvin (4). These results confirm the value of trifluorofluoro-oxy-methane as a selective electrophilic reagent for fluorination, comparable in its reactions to conventional reagents for direct halogenation.
