Fluorochemicals from fluorspar via a phosphate-enabled mechanochemical process that bypasses HF

<p>All fluorochemicals&mdash;including elemental fluorine and nucleophilic, electrophilic, and radical fluorinating reagents&mdash;are prepared from hydrogen fluoride (HF). This highly toxic and corrosive gas is produced by the reaction of acid-grade fluorspar (&gt;97% CaF<sub&g...
