Iodine pentafluoride is an easily storable Hquid source of fluorine having Httie of the hazards associated with other fluorine sources. It is used as a selective fluorinating agent for organic compounds. For example, it adds iodine and fluorine to tetrafluoroethylene in a commercial process to produce a usefiil telomer (124).

The chemistry and the biological applications of organic compounds containing phosphorus and fluorine have advanced so rapidly and in so many directions in recent years that all I can hope to do in a monograph of this size is to select certain aspects for special treatment. Even these selected topics are not treated exhaustively, and the original lectures are written up as a series of essays. It is hoped thereby that sufficient information will be given to enable the general reader to follow the development of those aspects of the subject with which the author has been personally connected since 1939.

Perchloryl fluoride is thermally stable up to 500° C. and very resistant to hydrolysis. It is a colorless gas in ordinary conditions with b.p., —46.7°C., and m.p., —147.8°C. It is a powerful oxidant at elevated temperatures. It exhibits selective fluorination properties and has been used as a perchlorylation reagent for introducing the C103 group on carbon in organic compounds. It is moderately toxic (maximum allowable concentration, 3 p.p.m.8). A comprehensive review of the production, physical properties, and reactions of perchloryl fluoride is available.9...

Sulfur tetrafluoride is very stable when compared to the lower sulfur fluorides. It can be stored at room temperature for an indeflnite period of time. It is very reactive and is valued as a selective fluorinating agent for both organic and inorganic compounds. Its remarkable fluorinating ability has been the subject of recent reviews. ...
