Abstract
The only known method for the dearomative trifluoromethoxylation of indoles is preliminary, with only one substrate successfully undergoing the reaction. In this study, we not only developed a broadly applicable method for indole dearomative trifluoromethoxylation but also achieved divergent trifluoromethoxylation by fine-tuning the reaction conditions. Under optimized conditions, with a silver salt and an easily handled OCF3 reagent, various indoles smoothly underwent dearomatization to afford a diverse array of ditrifluoromethoxylated indolines in 50-84% isolated yields with up to 37:1 diastereoselectivity, and fluorinated trifluoromethoxylated indolines were obtained with exclusive trans selectivity. In addition, the reaction conditions were compatible with other heteroaromatic rings as well as styrene moieties.

Abstract
The reaction of alkynyl aryl ketones bearing an o-methoxy group with difluoromethyl sulfoxide in the presence of Tf2O was found to conveniently afford the corresponding 3-SCF2H-substituted chromones. The combining use of difluoromethyl sulfoxide/Tf2O could represent the first reagents system that can introduce the biologically important SCF2H moiety under base-free conditions via an interrupted Pummerer reaction. The same protocol could also be applied to the synthesis of 3-SCF3-substituted chromones by replacing difluoromethyl sulfoxide with trifluoromethyl sulfoxide and CH3CN with toluene.

Abstract
We disclose a silver-catalyzed trifluoromethoxylation of N-tosyl aziridines with trifluoromethyl arylsulfonate. The protocol is characterized by its mild conditions, simple operations, and good chemo- and regioselectivity. In addition, the trifluoromethoxylation of trisubstituted aziridines could construct C-OCF3 quaternary centers exclusively, which is quite rare. This method unlocks a new catalytic blueprint for accessing β-trifluoromethoxylated amines, which could be important building blocks in synthetic chemistry.

Abstract
The heptafluoroisopropyl group (CF(CF3 )2 ) is prevalent in pharmaceuticals and agrichemicals. However, heptafluoroisopropoxylated (OCF(CF3 )2 ) compounds remain largely underexplored, presumably due to the lack of efficient access to these compounds. Herein, we disclose the practical and efficient heptafluoroisopropoxylation reactions through the invention of a series of redox-active N-OCF(CF3 )2 reagents. These reagents were readily prepared from the oxidative heptafluoroisopropylation of hydroxylamines with AgCF(CF3 )2 . The substitutions on the nitrogen atom significantly affected the properties and reactivities of N-OCF(CF3 )2 reagents. Accordingly, two types of N-OCF(CF3 )2 reagents including N-OCF(CF3 )2 phthalimide A and N-OCF(CF3 )2 benzotriazolium salt O' were used as OCF(CF3 )2 anion and radical precursors, respectively. This protocol enables the direct heptafluoroisopropoxylation of a range of substrates, delivering the corresponding products in moderate to excellent yields.

Abstract
![]()
The
first light-driven
method for the α-trifluoromethoxylation
of ketones is reported. Enol carbonates react with N-trifluoromethoxy-4-cyano-pyridinium, using the photoredox catalyst
4-CzIPN under 456 nm irradiation, affording the α-trifluoromethoxy
ketones in ≤50% isolated yield and complete chemoselectivity.
As shown by 29 examples, the reaction is general and proceeds very
rapidly under batch (1 h) and flow conditions (2 min). Diverse product
manipulations demonstrate the synthetic potential of the disclosed
method in accessing elusive trifluoromethoxylated bioactive ingredients.

Abstract
The trifluoromethoxy group has elicited much interest among drug and agrochemical discovery teams because of its unique properties. We developed trifluoromethyl nonafluorobutanesulfonate (nonaflate), TFNf, an easy-to-handle, bench-stable, reactive, and scalable trifluoromethoxylating reagent. TFNf is easily and safely prepared in a simple process in large scale and the nonaflyl part of TFNf can easily be recovered as nonaflyl fluoride after usage and recycled. The synthetic potency of TFNf was showcased with the underexplored synthesis of various trifluoromethoxylated alkenes, through a high regio- and stereoselective hydro(halo)trifluoromethoxylation of alkyne derivatives such as haloalkynes, alkynyl esters, and alkynyl sulfones. The synthetic merits of TFNf were further underscored with a high-yielding and smooth nucleophilic trifluoromethoxylation of alkyl triflates/bromides and primary/secondary alcohols.

Abstract
Fluorinated groups are essential for drug design, agrochemicals, and materials science. The bis(trifluoromethyl)amino group is an example of a stable group that has a high potential. While the number of molecules containing perfluoroalkyl, perfluoroalkoxy, and other fluorinated groups is steadily increasing, examples with the N(CF3 )2 group are rare. One reason is that transfer reagents are scarce and metal-based storable reagents are unknown. Herein, a set of CuI and AgI bis(trifluoromethyl)amido complexes stabilized by N- and P-donor ligands with unprecedented stability are presented. The complexes are stable solids that can even be manipulated in air for a short time. They are bis(trifluoromethyl)amination reagents as shown by nucleophilic substitution and Sandmeyer reactions. In addition to a series of benzylbis(trifluoromethyl)amines, 2-bis(trifluoromethyl)amino acetate was obtained, which, upon hydrolysis, gives the fluorinated amino acid N,N-bis(trifluoromethyl)glycine.

Abstract
The direct trifluoromethylation of a variety of aliphatic alcohols using a hypervalent iodosulfoximine reagent afforded the corresponding ethers in moderate to good yields (14-72 %). Primary, secondary, and even tertiary alcohols, including examples derived from natural products, underwent this transformation in the presence of catalytic amounts of zinc bis(triflimide). Typical reaction conditions involved a neat mixture of 6.0 equivalents of the alcohol with 1.0 equivalent of the reagent, with the majority of reactions complete within 2 h with 2.5 mol % of the Lewis acid catalyst. Furthermore, experimental evidence was provided that the C-O bond-forming process occurred via the coordination of the alcohol to the iodine atom and subsequent reductive elimination.

Abstract
Applications of TEMPO. catalysis for the development of redox-neutral transformations are rare. Reported here is the first TEMPO. -catalyzed, redox-neutral C-H di- and trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes. The reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope, has high functional-group tolerance, and can be employed for the late-stage functionalization of complex druglike molecules. Kinetic measurements, isolation and resubjection of catalytic intermediates, UV/Vis studies, and DFT calculations support the proposed oxidative TEMPO. /TEMPO+ redox catalytic cycle. Mechanistic studies also suggest that Li2 CO3 plays an important role in preventing catalyst deactivation. These findings will provide new insights into the design and development of novel reactions through redox-neutral TEMPO. catalysis.

Abstract
The synthesis of trifluoromethylthiolated ketenimines is herein described. They are easily synthesized from the corresponding α-trifluoromethylthiolated oximes upon activation with triflic anhydride and a base. The presumed nitrilium ion resulting from the Beckmann rearrangement is deprotonated to lead to the key intermediate, whose stability brought by the fluorinated substituent was unforeseeable. The reaction of these new building blocks with a variety of nucleophiles affords a vast array of cyclic and acyclic products bearing the valuable SCF3 moiety.

Abstract
The first Markovnikov-type hydrotrifluoromethylselenolation of unactivated terminal alkenes with the readily accessible [Me4N][SeCF3] reagent and the superacid TfOH is reported. The reaction proceeded at room temperature under catalyst- and additive-free conditions to give the branched trifluoromethylselenolated products in good yields. This protocol is also applicable to the Markovnikov-type hydrotrifluoromethylthiolation of unactivated terminal alkenes using [Me4N][SCF3]/TfOH, but not to the hydrotrifluoromethoxylation with CsOCF3/TfOH under the same conditions. The successful hydrotrifluoromethylselenolation and hydrotrifluoromethylthiolation showed simplicity and high regioselectivity, taming the sensitive −XCF3 (X = Se, S) anions with TfOH, and offered a convenient method for the straightforward synthesis of branched trifluoromethyl selenoethers and thioethers from unactivated alkenes.

Abstract
Methods for direct C-H trifluoromethoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes are rare, despite the importance of trifluoromethoxylated compounds for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and material sciences. Especially selective C-H trifluoromethoxylation of pyridines remains a formidable challenge. Here we show a general late-stage C-H trifluoromethoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes as limiting reagent with trifluoromethoxide anion. The reaction is mediated by silver salts under mild reaction conditions, exhibiting broad substrate scope and wide functional-group compatibility. In addition, ortho-position selective C-H trifluoromethoxylation of pyridines is observed. The method is not only applicable to the gram-scale synthesis of trifluoromethoxylated products but also allows efficient late-stage C-H trifluoromethoxylation of marketed small-molecule drugs, common pharmacophores and natural products. Selective C-H trifluoromethoxylation of pyridines remains a formidable synthetic challenge. Here, the authors report a silver-mediated late-stage C-H trifluoromethoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes as limiting reagents with trifluoromethoxide anion.

Abstract
The incorporation of the trifluoromethoxy group into organic molecules has become very popular due to the unique properties of the named substituent that has a "pseudohalogen" character, while the chemical properties of the synthesized compound, especially heterocycles with such a group, are less studied. As trifluoromethoxy-substituted pyrazines are still unknown, we have developed efficient and scalable methods for 2-chloro-5-trifluoromethoxypyrazine synthesis, showing the synthetic utility of this molecule for Buchwald-Hartwig amination and the Kumada-Corriu and Suzuki and Sonogashira coupling reactions. Some comparisons of chlorine atom and trifluoromethoxy group stability in these transformations have been carried out.

Abstract
The biological properties of molecules containing the trifluoromethoxy group have made these compounds important targets in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, yet their preparation is still a substantial challenge. Herein, we present a practical nucleophilic trifluoromethoxylation of alkyl halides with (E)-O-trifluoromethyl-benzaldoximes (TFBO) as a trifluoromethoxylation reagent in the absence of silver under mild reaction conditions. The trifluoromethoxylation reagent TFBO is easily prepared and thermally stable, and can release CF3O− species in the presence of a base. Furthermore, broad scope and good functional group compatibility are demonstrated by application of the method to the late-stage trifluoromethoxylation of alkyl halides in complex small molecules. Trifluoromethyl ethers are important bioactive targets in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, however, their synthesis is often not straightforward. Here, the authors disclose a reagent for the nucleophilic trifluoromethoxylation of alkyl halides without silver and under mild conditions.

Abstract
Molecules containing trifluoromethoxyaryl groups are of interest in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials science research, due to their unique physical and electronic properties. Many of the known methods to synthesize aryl trifluoromethyl ethers require harsh reagents and highly controlled reaction conditions and rarely occur when heteroaromatic units are present. The two-step O-trifluoromethylation of phenols via aryl xanthates is one such method that suffers from these drawbacks. Herein, we report a method for the synthesis of aryl trifluoromethyl ethers from phenols by the facile conversion of the phenol to the corresponding aryl and heteroaryl xanthates with newly synthesized imidazolium methylthiocarbonothioyl salts and conversion of these xanthates to the trifluoromethyl ethers under mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
Here we report a silver-mediated trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborates by converting an aromatic amino group into an OCF3 group. This method, which can be considered to be a trifluoromethoxylation variation of the classic Sandmeyer-type reaction, uses readily available aryl and heteroaromatic amines as starting materials and AgOCF3 as trifluoromethoxylating reagents. The broad substrate scope and simple, mild reaction condition made this transformation a valuable method in constructing aryl-OCF3 bonds.

Abstract
Trifluoromethoxy (OCF3 ) and difluoromethoxy (OCF2 H) groups are fluorinated structural motifs that exhibit unique physicochemical characteristics. Incorporation of these substituents into organic molecules is a highly desirable approach used in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery processes to alter the properties of a parent compound. Recently, tri- and difluoromethyl ethers have received increasing attention and several innovative strategies to access these valuable functional groups have been developed. The focus of this Minireview is the use of visible-light photoredox catalysis in the synthesis of tri- and difluoromethyl ethers. Recent photocatalytic strategies for the formation of O-CF3 , C-OCF3, O-CF2 H, and C-OCF2 H bonds as well as other transformations leading to the construction of ORF groups are discussed herein.
