A boron-catalyzed direct α-trifluoromethylthiolation of carboxylicacids was developed. Catalytically generated boron enediolates reacts with electrophilic SCF3 reagent, N-SCF3-phthalimide, to provide α-SCF3 carboxylicacids without the need of substrate pre-activation. The method is applicable to direct modification of bioactive carboxylicacids. Data science analyses provided suitable models for
