Generation of the CF3 radical from trifluoromethylsulfonium triflate and its trifluoromethylation of styrenes

Abstract

The CF3 radical was generated from the reaction of S-(trifluoromethyl)diphenylsulfonium triflate with Na2S2O4 or HOCH2SO2Na under suitable conditions without further reduction. Based on this, a method for the synthesis of α-trifluoromethylated ketones has been successfully developed.
