Nucleophilic trifluoromethylthiolation of bromoalkynones with AgSCF3: C(sp)–SCF3 bond formation towards ynonyl trifluoromethyl sulfides†
Abstract
An AgSCF3 mediated nucleophilic trifluoromethylthiolation reaction for C(sp)–SCF3 bond formation is reported. This nucleophilic trifluoromethylthiolation reaction of bromoalkynones afforded various useful ynonyl trifluoromethyl sulfides in high yields. Interestingly, the over-addition of AgSCF3 is avoided in our approach.
