First‐row transition metal complexes have garnered attention due to their ability to activate aliphatic halides for catalytic cross‐coupling reactions. However, mechanistic investigation of these systems is challenging as a consequence of difficulties associated with preparing the relevant metal complexes and the resultant poor stability of such in...

The past decade has witnessed remarkable growth of catalytic transformations in organic sulfur(VI) fluoride chemistry. This Perspective concentrates exclusively on foundational examples that utilize catalytic strategies to synthesize and react S(VI) fluorides. Key mechanistic studies that aim to provide insight toward future catalytic systems are e...
