Development of routes to new fluorine containing molecules utilising commodity chemicals

许多制冷剂气体在其设计中使用氟原子，每年作为商品化学品大量生产，供家庭和车辆使用。尽管它们在商业应用方面的应用相对较少，但对它们在小分子合成中的反应性的探索却很少。这意味着在探索这些气体的基本反应性质并将其应用于小分子合成方面存在巨大的未开发潜力。该项目将力求通过重新利用上述制冷剂来扩大氟掺入的范围和可持续性。

Many refrigerant gases utilise fluorine atoms in their designs and are produced as commodity chemicals in large quantities each year for household and vehicle applications. Despite their uses in commercial applications relatively little has been done to explore their reactivities for small molecule synthesis. This means there is great untapped potential in exploring the fundamental reactivity properties of these gases and applying them to small molecule synthesis. This project will look to increase the scope and sustainability of fluorine incorporation through the repurposing of said refrigerants.
