Abstract
This paper reviews the recent development of the fluorinating agents. The agents are classified into two categories -nulceophilic and electrophilic fluorinating agents- and summarized. The agents included are new ammonium, phosphonium, and phosphazenium fluoride salts, hypofluorites, N-fluorosulfonamides, N-fluoropyridinium salts, N-fluoroamides, N-fluoroquinuclidinium salts and some others. The fluorinations with the agents are also described.
