Chemistry of Thiazyl Fluoride (NSF) and Thiazyl Trifluoride (NSF3): A Quarter Century of Sulfur‐Nitrogen‐Fluorine Chemistry

Abstract

Since the first sulfur‐nitrogen‐fluorine compounds were synthesized 25 years ago^[2], great progress has been made in this field of covalent fluorine chemistry^[3–9]. The two small molecules thiazyl fluoride (NSF) and thiazyl trifluoride (NSF₃), are key substances; nearly all sulfur‐nitrogen‐fluorine compounds can be derived from them.
