Description

<p>A novel method for electrochemical C(sp3)-H fluorination has been developed under an academia-industry collaborative research. Using Selectfluor and a nitrate salt, a wide range of aliphatic C-H bonds can be converted to C-F bonds in a single step without the requirement of existing functional groups. Here we describe the detail of our collaborative research, including protocol optimization, substrate scope and limitations, and its application to Eisai in-house compounds, especially to tropane compounds. The impact of fluorination on drug-likeness properties was also assessed, and significant improvements on P-gp liability and hERG/Nav 1.5 inhibitory were observed.</p>
