Moissan's researches on fluorine and the fluorine compounds

[Health effects of fluorine and its compounds].

Fluoride, the ionic form of fluorine, is a natural component of the biosphere and 13th most abundant element in the crust of the earth. It is, therefore, found in a wide range of concentrations in virtually all inanimate and living things. Many trace elements perform a definite function in human metabolism and the question of the value of fluoride, always found in the body, has been raised. Muc...

Determination of fluorine in organic compounds.

Thermochemistry of Organic Fluorine Compounds and Carbon Compounds

Rotating-bomb calorimetry was first applied to organic compounds that contain chlorine, bromine, or sulphur. Techniques developed for these classes of compounds, mostly at the University of Lund and at the Bureau of Mines in Bartlesville, have been described in the book Experimental Thermochemistry-, The development of rotating-bomb methods made accurate combustion calorimetry feasible for othe...

Introduction of fluorine and fluorine-containing functional groups.

Over the past decade, the most significant, conceptual advances in the field of fluorination were enabled most prominently by organo- and transition-metal catalysis. The most challenging transformation remains the formation of the parent C-F bond, primarily as a consequence of the high hydration energy of fluoride, strong metal-fluorine bonds, and highly polarized bonds to fluorine. Most fluori...
