Novel N(SCF3)(CF3)-amines: synthesis, scalability and stability

Abstract

We disclosed herein a straightforward strategy for the synthesis of unprecedented N-((trifluoromethyl)thio), N-(trifluoromethyl) amines using a combination of isothiocyanates with a fluoride source and an electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolation reagent. More interestingly, the scalability of the methodology has been demonstrated and the stability of the new motif has been studied.
