Hi Kristi:
There
is a low probability of generating HF as a side product during nucleophilic fluorination. By the way which method
researcher is
using for forming the C-F bond? There are various methods available in the
literature for such fluorination.

Good luck.

Is anyone else treating nucleophilic fluorination reagents in the same way as HF in terms of precautions and emergency response? I'm not finding any data on the subject aside from recommendations to have calcium gluconate on hand in SDSs.
Thanks,
Kristi
