Trifluoromethoxylated (hetero)arenes are of great interest for several disciplines, especially in agro- and medicinal chemistry. Radical C?H trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes represents an attractive approach to prepare such compounds, but the high cost and low atom economy of existing .OCF3 radical sources make them unsuitable for the large-scale synthesis of trifluoromethoxylated building blocks. Herein, we introduce bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide (BTMP, CF3OOCF3) as a practical and efficient trifluoromethoxylating reagent that is easily accessible from inexpensive bulk chemicals. Using either visible light photoredox or TEMPO catalysis, trifluoromethoxylated arenes could be prepared in good yields under mild conditions directly from unactivated aromatics. Moreover, TEMPO catalysis allowed for the one-step synthesis of valuable pyridine derivatives, which have been previously prepared via multi-step approaches.

Fluorine is probably another favorite hetero-atom for incorporation into small molecules after nitrogen. Among many fluorine-containing groups, trifluoromethyl aryl ethers (ArOCF3) have unique properties in drug design and are difficult to be synthesized, and many different methods were developed to prepare them. A novel one-pot synthesis of o-iodine-aryl trifluoromethyl ethers (ArOCF3I) was described by the reaction of trifluoromethoxylation and iodination with trifluoromethyl aryl sulfonates (TFMS) in this manuscript. The reaction conditions were optimized by screening different solvents, crown ethers, substrates and the ratios and the yields of products were in moderate to high yields (up to 86%).

Trifluoromethyl benzoate (TFBz) is developed as a new shelf-stable trifluoromethoxylation reagent, which can be easily prepared from inexpensive starting materials using KF as the only fluorine source. The synthetic potency of TFBz is demonstrated by trifluoromethoxylation-halogenation of arynes, nucleophilic substitution of alkyl (pseudo)halides, cross-coupling with aryl stannanes, and asymmetric difunctionalization of alkenes. The unprecedented trifluoromethoxylation-halogenation of arynes proceeds smoothly at room temperature with the aid of a crown ether-complexed potassium cation, which significantly stabilizes the trifluoromethoxide anion derived from TFBz.
