(Z)-3-(4-Fluoro-phen-yl)-1-[4-(methyl-sulfon-yl)phen-yl]-2-tosyl-prop-2-en-1-one
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(23)H(19)FO(5)S(2), two of the phenyl ring C atoms and a sulfonyl O atom of the phenyl(methylsulfonyl) group are disordered over two positions with occupancies 0.522 (17):0.478 (17). The methyl-phenyl and fluoro-phenyl rings are essentially planar, with maximum deviations of 0.0059 (8) and 0.0047 (9) Å, respectively. The crystal packing is stabilized by C-H⋯F inter-actions.

02:26Preparation and Reactions of Sulfides
Sulfides are the sulfur analog of ethers, just as thiols are the sulfur analog of alcohol. Like ethers, sulfides also consist of two hydrocarbon groups bonded to the central sulfur atom. Depending upon the type of groups present, sulfides can be symmetrical or asymmetrical. Symmetrical sulfides can be prepared via an SN2 reaction between 2 equivalents of an alkyl halide and one equivalent of sodium sulfide.
01:13Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution: Fluorination and Iodination of Benzene
Bromination and chlorination of aromatic rings by electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions are easily achieved, but fluorination and iodination are difficult to achieve. Fluorine is so reactive that its reaction with benzene is difficult to control, resulting in poor yields of monofluoroaromatic products. To address this, Selectfluor reagent is used as a fluorine source in which a fluorine atom is bonded to a positively charged nitrogen.
