Discovery on Sulfur-Phenolate Exchange: SuFEx-Derived Dynamic Covalent Reactions and Degradation of SuFEx Polymers
Among known click chemistry, sulfur (VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) reaction is a new generation of click chemistry, in which the S–F bond reacts readily with silyl-protected phenols, phenolates or amines. In 2019, Han Zuilhof’s group discovered that SuFEx reaction is intrinsically an enantiospecific click reaction as a chiral S(VI) center reacts exclusively with inversion of configuration. Th...
