The past few years have witnessed a fast-growing research interest on the study of sulfonyl fluorides as reactive probes in chemical biology and molecular pharmacology, which raises an urgent need for the development of effective synthetic methods to expand the toolkit. Herein, we present the invention of a facile and general approach for the synthesis of aliphatic sulfonyl fluorides via visible-light-mediated decarboxylative fluorosulfonylethylation. The method is based on abundant carboxylic a ...[more]
