Electrolytic partial fluorination of organic compounds 84: Anodic mono- and difluorination of benzylphosphonate derivatives

Anodic fluorination of benzylphosphonate derivatives was carried out under various electrolytic conditions to provide the corresponding α-mono- and/or α,α-difluoro-products in moderate to good yields. It was found that the selectivity of fluorinated products was depending on the molecular structures of the starting substrates and the electrolytic conditions.
