The reaction of trifluoromethylthiocopper with halomethanes, namely di-and triiodo-, dibromodichloro-, dibromochlorofluoro-, dibromo-difluoro-, bromochlorofluoro-, phenyltrichloro-, bromocyano-and dibromofluoro-methanes, has been investigated in detail. In addition to the expected compounds, the formation of unusual products such as bis (trifluoromethyl) trithiocarbonate, dimethyl (trifluoromethylthio) benzene, bis (trifluoromethylthio) fluoromethane, (trifluoromethylthio) carbonyl fluoride, carbon disulfide, carbon tetrachloride, trifluoromethylthio-benzoate, etc. was observed. In some cases, bis (trifluoromethylthio) mercury has been used instead of trifluoromethylthiocopper. The mechanism of formation of the various products and their mass spectral fragmentation behavior are described.
