The expansion of chemical space associated with ubiquitous motifs is key to unleash new properties and functions. In this context, alkynamides, prevalent in numerous drugs and materials, represent an untapped resource. We herein report the first synthetic access to N-trifluoromethyl alkynamides. Our strategy relies on a mild and operationally simple Ni-catalyzed coupling of N-CF3 carbamoyl fluorides with alkynyl silanes. The synthesized N-CF3 alkynamides proved to be highly robust and readily functioned as a platform to unlock access to valuable derivatives, such as N-CF3 decorated alkenyl amides, oxindoles, or quinolones, all of which were inaccessible to date.

A highly efficient, selective, and rapid transformation of primary amines and diamines to isothiocyanates and cyclic thioureas is disclosed. As opposed to established approaches that employ toxic or volatile electrophilic liquids and require reaction control (i.e., slow addition, cooling), this protocol utilizes the bench-stable, solid reagent (Me4N)SCF3 at room temperature. The method is characterized by operational simplicity, high speed, efficiency, high functional group tolerance, and late-stage applicability. The byproducts are solids, allowing isolation of the target compounds by filtration.
