trifluoroacetate was prepared in situ from quinuclidine N-oxide and (CF3CO)2O. Except for some electron-poor substrates, this reagent allows for the high-yielding oxidative trifluoroacetoxylation of 1°, 2°, and 3° benzylic C–H bonds under photocatalytic conditions. The trifluoroacetoxylation of an ibuprofen methyl ester allowed the selective functionalization of a 2° benzylic C–H bond. For alkylbenzenes, hydrogen-atom
