Nucleophilic trifluoromethylation and perfluoroalkylation reactions have been the outstanding approach during the last few decades to effect fluoroalkyl group addition or substitution reactions. In most instances, ...

Fluorinated radicals in water are shown to enable a useful array of synthetic organic transformations, reflecting these intermediates' distinct behavior in water or aqueous media. The enhanced reactivities of perfluroalkyl ...

The fluorination of two types of graphene oxides conducted by an easy and scalable deoxyfluorination reaction is reported. This reaction was carried out using diethylaminodifluorosulfinium tetrafluoroborate, a stable ...

We carry an investigation on the structural and optical properties of amorphous carbon films, containing fluorine and sulfur in their composition, grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor (PECVD) and plasma immersion ion ...

The determination of fluorine using the molecular absorption of gallium mono-fluoride (GaF) at the 211.248 nm rotational line has been optimized using a commercially available high-resolution continuum source atomic ...

Two obligate intracellular parasites, Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas disease, and Toxoplasma gondii, an agent of toxoplasmosis, upregulate the mevalonate pathway of their host cells upon infection, which suggests ...

Electrophilic trifluoromethylation reactions have been the latest approach to achieve the fluoroalkylation of compounds with newly-discovered reagents, such as the Togni’s (1-trifluoromethyl-1,2-benziodoxol-3-(1 H)-one), ...

Optical absorption, Stokes, and anti-Stokes photoluminescence were performed on Er3+-Yb3+ co-doped fluoroindate glasses. For compounds prepared with a fixed 2 mol % ErF3 concentration and YbF3 contents ranging from 0 to 8 ...

Non-linear absorption is observed in Er3+-doped fluoroindate glass (in mol% 37InF2:20ZnF2:20SrF2:16BaF2:2GdF2: 2NaF:1GaF3:2ErF3) when the sample is irradiated with a CW laser emitting at 650 nm. An intensity dependence of ...
