We developed an electrochemical trifluoromethylation of thiophenols without the use of metal catalysts and oxidants. This reaction features mild reaction conditions, readily available substrate, as well as moderate to good yields. In addition, this protocol can be easily scaled up with moderate efficiency.

The invention belongs to the field of synthesis of organic intermediates, and specifically discloses an ultrasonic-assisted synthesis method for a benzoic acid compound. The method comprises the following step: promoting air oxidation of benzyl alcohol by using diethylene glycol dimethyl ether under an ultrasonic-assisted action so as to obtain the benzoic acid compound, wherein a benzyl alcohol raw material is benzyl alcohol, or a benzoic acid derivative containing one to five substituents at different positions on the benzene ring of benzyl alcohol; and a reaction accelerator is the diethylene glycol dimethyl ether. The method provided by the invention has the advantages of easily-available raw materials, simple and convenient reaction conditions, short reaction time, greenness, energy conservation, high reaction selectivity and yield, excellent compatibility of substrate functional groups, and high application value.

S-CF3 bonds are important structural motifs in various pharmaceutical and agrochemical compounds. However, their preparation remains a major challenge in synthetic organic chemistry. Here, we report the development of a mild and fast photocatalytic trifluoromethylation of thiols. The combination of commercially available Ru(bpy)3Cl2, visible light and inexpensive CF3I gas proved to be an efficient method for the direct trifluoromethylation of thiols. The protocol is demonstrated on a wide range of aromatic, hetero-aromatic and aliphatic substrates in both batch and continuous microflow (32 examples, 52-98% yield). Process intensification through continuous microflow application resulted in a 15-fold increase in production rate (0.25 mmol min-1) due to improved gas-liquid mass transfer, enhanced irradiation as well as convenient handling of the gaseous CF3 source. Furthermore, the efficiency of the flow process allowed to reduce the amount of CF3I (1.1 equivalent) to reach full conversion. This journal is
