 Organofluorine compounds are widely used in many different applications due to their unique chemical properties. Fluorine substitution can confer useful molecular properties such as increased stability and hydrophobicity, while also influencing the conformation of organic molecules. Stereoselective introduction of fluorine atoms can be used to control the shapes of functional molecules, which can be used in the production of pharmaceuticals, organocatalysts, liquid crystals, and more.
