Abstract
A novel organocatalytic olefinic carbon-sulfur bond forming reaction was developed. Under the catalysis of 10 mol% stable N-heterocyclic carbene, thiols undergo direct nucleophilic substitution reaction with gem-difluoroalkenes to produce α-fluorovinyl thioethers in high yields with excellent Z-selectivity. In this process, bases are not necessary.
