Abstract

From inorganic fluoride to organic fluoride: Just as the old Chinese legend that a carp succeed in leaping over the divine gate will become a Chinese dragon. In the presence of 18-c-6, KF succeed in reacting with thiophosgene, leaping over obstacles of unstable SCF3 anion intermediate, and is being transformed into trifluoromethylthiolation reagent TFBT, which has been used in trifluoromethylthiolation of a variety of substrates including alkynes, halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, boronic acids, etc. More information can be found in the Research Article by J. Hu et al. (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202104395).
