Abstract:

The synthesis method，principle and the factors affecting the Simons electrochemical fluorination of organic compounds are introduced. The key problems in the process during the industrialization of the Simons electrochemical fluorination of organic compounds，such as reactor design，fluorinated product separation and analysis are discussed. It is proposed to investigate the selective electrochemical fluorination of organic compounds to synthesize partially fluorinated compounds by using Ni alloy as an anode. The main research fields，such as the thermodynamic characteristics on electrode/electrolyte interface and reaction kinetics on electrode surface，three-dimensional electrode electrochemical reactors and on-line analysis method are also presented.
