Abstract
A new, stable and scalable reagent for deuteriodifluoromethylthiolation (deuterated N-difluoromethylthiophthalimide, PhthSCF2D) has been developed. This reagent can be applied for the photocatalytic radical deuteriodifluoromethylthiolation of various olefins and aldehydes (30 examples). Meanwhile, it can achieve the electrophilic deuteriodifluoromethylthiolation of a series of electrophilic substrates including electron-rich arenes, aryl/vinylboronicacids, alkynes, amines, thiols and β-ketoesters (22 examples). Some complex molecules can also be applied in both radical and electrophilic deuteriodifluoromethylthiolation using PhthSCF2D as the reagent.
