functionalized allylic gem‐difluorides via catalytic fluorinative Meyer–Schuster‐like rearrangement is disclosed. This transformation proceeded with readily accessible propargylicfluorides, and low‐cost B–F reagents and electrophilic reagents by sulfide catalysis. A series of iodinated, brominated, and trifluoromethylthiolated allylic gem‐difluorides that were difficult to access by other methods were
alkyl ethers has been developed, achieving the challenging tertiary C(sp3)–SCF3 coupling under redox‐neutral conditions. The synergism of organophotocatalyst 4CzIPN and BINOL‐based phosphorothiols can site‐selectively cleave tertiary sp3 C(sp3)–O etherbonds in complex molecules initiated by a polarity‐matching hydrogen‐atom‐transfer (HAT) event. The incorporation of several competing benzylic and methine
by Pd-catalyzed C(sp3)–H bond functionalization was developed. Using a bidentate directing group, the direct and selective introduction of a SCF3 moiety was possible on a range of amides with remarkable selectivity for C(sp3)-centers with an electrophilic SCF3 source and pivalic acid as an additive. This work constitutes an example of the unactivated C(sp3)–SCF3 bond formation by C–Hactivation offering

A family of electrophilic trifluoromethanesulfenates was prepared. Structure–reactivity relationship studies showed that the substituted groups on the aryl ring of the trifluoromethylthiolating reagent did not have an obvious influence on their reactivities. A simplified electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent 1c was then identified that can react with a wide range of nucleophiles such as Grignard
and Lu's reagent 1 a being the most reactive and Billard's reagent 1 h being the least reactive electrophile. While the observed electrophilic reactivities (E) of the amido‐derived trifluoromethylthiolating reagents correlate well with the calculated Gibbs energies for heterolytic cleavage of the X−SCF3 bonds (Tt+DA), the cumol‐derivedreagents 1 f and 1 g are more reactive than expected from the thermodynamics
