N-Fluorobenzenesulfonimide: An Efficient Nitrogen Source for C–N Bond Formation

Abstract

N-Fluorobenzenesulfonimide, an efficient nitrogen source, has been successfully employed as a source of nucleophilic nitrogen or nitrogen radicals for the formation of C–N bonds. This review summarizes recent progress in this field.
