Abstract

Polar exploration: Recently, Linclau and co-workers disclosed a straightforward 19F-NMR method for determining the log P values of fluorocarbons. The method is particularly useful for most polar compounds and provides a quantitative way to rationalize the more subtle stereoelectronic consequences of fluorine introduction.
