Abstract Recent studies on fluoride ion-mediated anodic methoxylation of fluoroalkyl sulfides and sulfur-containing five-membered heterocyclic compounds together with its synthetic applications are summarized in this review. The first example of anodic methoxylation of 2-acyloxy-3,3,3-trifluoropropyl sulfides accompanying with [1,2]-rearrangement of acyloxy group is described. Fluoride ion-mediated anodic intramolecular cyclization of 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl sulfides bearing OH and t-BuCOO groups provides CF3-containing 1,3-oxathiolane and ethylene carbonate derivatives, respectively. Fluoride ion mediator can be also applied to anodic intramolecular carbon-carbon coupling to form oxindole and 3-oxotetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives.
