Potassium fluoride is an inorganic chemical that is used in the water fluoridation process. It is also used as a source of fluoride ions for the synthesis of hydroxyapatite, a mineral found in teeth and bones. Fluoride ions are also used to treat certain infectious diseases, such as malaria. The asymmetric synthesis of potassium fluoride was first reported by M. S. Kharasch and J. A. Fink in 1943 using plasma mass spectrometry. This method has been widely adopted for commercial production of potassium fluoride because it can be scaled up easily and does not require specialized equipment.
Potassium fluoride has been shown to inhibit viral replication by hydrogen bonding with the guanine-cytosine base pairs on the viral dsDNA, which prevents the DNA from uncoiling and copying its genetic information into new viral particles. Potassium fluoride has also been shown to be effective against hepatitis B virus (HBV) and mammalian cells infected by HB
