Abd El Sater, M.; Popek, L.; Blanchard, N.; Bizet, V. Synthesis, 2025, 57, 1117-11137.

This review article outlines the literature covering last three years on the recent developments of the SF5 chemistry. Recent synthesis methodologies of SF5-containing building blocks are reported. These methods include the synthesis of SF5Cl, its use in pentafluorosulfanylation reactions, and oxidative fluorination reactions. Moreover, the reactivity of SF5-alkynes as versatile platform to access new SF5-compounds is described. Finally, effect of SF5 moiety is highlighted according to its application in different fields such as biological/medicinal chemistry, catalysis and material sciences.
