This report discloses the deallylation of O - and N -allyl functional groups by using a combination of a Ni-H precatalyst and excess Bronsted acid. Key steps are the isomerization of the O - or N -allyl group through Ni-catalyzed double-bond migration followed by Bronsted acid induced O/N-C bond hydrolysis. A variety of functional groups are tolerated in this protocol, highlighting its synthetic value.

- Trifluoromethyl Sulfoxides: Reagents for Metal-Free C?H Trifluoromethylthiolation
-
Trifluoromethyl sulfoxides are a new class of trifluoromethylthiolating reagent. The sulfoxides engage in metal-free C?H trifluoromethylthiolation with a range of (hetero)arenes. The method is also applicable to the functionalization of important compound classes, such as ligand derivatives and polyaromatics, and in the late-stage trifluoromethylthiolation of medicines and agrochemicals. The isolation and characterization of a sulfonium salt intermediate supports an interrupted Pummerer reaction mechanism.

- Visible-Light-Mediated Synthesis of Trifluoromethylthiolated Arenes
-
The visible-light-mediated synthesis of trifluoromethylthiolated arenes in the presence of ruthenium-based photocatayst under mild reaction conditions is reported. The trifluoromethylthiolated arenes are obtained using the shelf-stable reagent trifluoromethyl toluenethiosulfonate at room temperature. The reaction proceeds selectively and does not require the presence of any additive. A mechanism is proposed based on the obtained results of EPR as well as luminescence.

- Lewis Base/Bronsted Acid Dual-Catalytic C-H Sulfenylation of Aromatics
-
A Lewis base/Bronsted acid catalyzed aromatic sulfenylation is reported. These studies demonstrated that the incorporation of electron-rich sulfenyl groups proceeded in the absence of a Lewis base, with kinetic studies indicating an autocatalytic mechanism. The incorporation of electron-poor sulfenyl groups demonstrated little autocatalysis necessitating the use of a Lewis base. This method proved amenable to diverse arenes and heterocycles and was effective in the context of the late-stage functionalization of biologically active small molecules.

- Iron-Catalyzed Decarboxylation of Trifluoroacetate and Its Application to the Synthesis of Trifluoromethyl Thioethers
-
Nucleophilic CF3 has been generated by decarboxylation of potassium trifluoroacetate, arguably the most easy-to-handle, inexpensive, and sustainable source of trifluoromethyl groups. Simple iron(II) chloride catalyzes the decarboxylation as well as a subsequent trifluoromethylation of organothiocyanates, resulting in a straightforward synthesis of trifluoromethyl thioethers. The KCN byproduct is absorbed by iron(II) with formation of nontoxic potassium hexacyanoferrate. An analogous trifluoromethylation of aldehydes with trifluoroacetate underlines the synthetic potential of such iron-catalyzed decarboxylative trifluoromethylations.

- Synthesis of Aryl Tri- and Difluoromethyl Thioethers via a C H-Thiocyanation/Fluoroalkylation Cascade
-
An AlCl3-catalyzed C H thiocyanation was discovered and combined with a Langlois-type trifluoromethylation to afford aryl trifluoromethyl thioethers directly from arenes, N-thiocyanatosuccinimide (NTS) and Ruppert-Prakash reagent. An analogous combination with a copper-mediated difluoromethylation gives access to aryl difluoromethyl thioethers. Both processes proceed with exceptional regioselectivity for the most electron-rich, sterically least hindered position of the arene. The sulfur and fluoroalkyl groups originate from different sources, so that the use of expensive, preformed fluoroalkylthiolation reagents is avoided. Perfectly formed: An AlCl3-catalyzed C H thiocyanation was combined with a Langlois-type trifluoromethylation to afford aryl trifluoromethyl thioethers directly from arenes, N-thiocyanatosuccinimide, and TMS-CF3 (see scheme). An analogous combination of the thiocyanation with a copper-mediated difluoromethylation gives access to aryl difluoromethyl thioethers.

- Acid-promoted direct electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolation of phenols
-
The electrophilic aromatic ring trifluoromethylthiolation of various substituted phenols was accomplished using PhNHSCF3 (N-trifluoromethylsulfanyl)aniline, (1) in the presence of BF3·Et2O (2) or triflic acid as the promoter. The functionalization was exclusively para-selective; phenols unsubstituted in both the ortho- and para positions solely gave the para-substituted SCF3-products in all cases, while para-substituted phenols gave the ortho-substituted SCF3-products. 3,4-Dialkyl substituted phenols yielded the corresponding products according to the Mills-Nixon effect, and estrone and estradiol furnished biologically interesting SCF3-analogues. The highly reactive catechol and pyrogallol substrates gave the expected products smoothly in the presence of BF3·Et2O, whereas less reactive phenols required triflic acid. 2-Allylphenol gave the expected p-SCF3 analogue, which underwent an addition/cyclization sequence and furnished a new di-trifluoromethylthio substituted 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran derivative. Some additional transformations of 4-(trifluoromethylthio)phenol with NBS, NIS, HNO3, HNO3/H2SO4 and 4-bromobenzyl bromide were performed giving bromo-, iodo-, nitro- and benzyl substituted products. The latter derivative underwent Suzuki-Miyaura coupling with phenylboronic acid.

- A mild and fast photocatalytic trifluoromethylation of thiols in batch and continuous-flow
-
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
