Abstract
Alkyllithium-activated organoboronic esters are found to undergo stereospecific phosphination with copper chloride and chlorophosphines. They also react with thiolsulfonate electrophiles under copper catalysis. These reactions enable stereospecific phosphination and thiolation of organoboronic esters, which are further applied in preparation of chiral ligands and biologically active molecules.

Abstract
As the least abundant residue in proteins, tryptophan widely exists in peptide drugs and bioactive natural products and contributes to drug-target interactions in multiple ways. We report here a clickable tryptophan modification for late-stage diversification of native peptides, via catalyst-free C2-sulfenylation with 8-quinoline thiosulfonate reagents in trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). A wide range of groups including trifluoromethylthio (SCF3), difluoromethylthio (SCF2H), (ethoxycarbonyl)difluoromethylthio (SCF2CO2Et), alkylthio, and arylthio were readily incorporated. The rapid reaction kinetics of Trp modification and full tolerance with other 19 proteinogenic amino acids, as well as the super dissolving capability of TFA, render this method suitable for all kinds of Trp-containing peptides without limitations from sequences, hydrophobicity, and aggregation propensity. The late-stage modification of 15 therapeutic peptides (1.0 to 7.6 kilodaltons) and the improved bioactivity and serum stability of SCF3- and SCF2H-modified melittin analogs illustrated the effectiveness of this method and its potential in pharmacokinetic property improvement.

Abstract
The combining use of BnSCF2D, mCPBA and Tf2O serves as an efficient multi-component reagents system (MCRS) for the synthesis of deuteriodifluoromethylthiolated isocoumarins-1-imines/isocoumarins via intramolecular cyclization/deuteriodifluoromethylthiolation of 2-alkynylbenzamides/2-alkynylbenzoates. The approach features the generation of the crucial reactive electrophilic sulfonium salt through a sequence process involving the oxidation of BnSCF2D by mCPBA followed by Tf2O promoted activation.

Abstract
An efficient copper-catalyzed selective fluoromethylthiolation of an inert δ-C(sp3)-H bond in sulfonamides was reported. In the presence of a copper catalyst and PhSO2SRf, the radical generated through 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) was sufficiently trapped by PhSO2SRf, instead of copper, which was prevalent in metal-catalyzed radical-relay processes, incorporating a fluoromethylthio group into molecules. The general substrate scope and mild conditions endowed the method with wide potential applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.

Abstract
A mild and general methodology for the difluoromethylthiolation of cycloalkanols has been developed by employing N-difluoromethylthiophthalimide as the SCF2H radical source, in combination with an acridinium-derived organo-photosensitizer, under redox-neutral conditions. This reaction protocol demonstrates high efficiency, scalability, and mild reaction conditions, thus presenting a green approach for the rapid synthesis of distal difluoromethylthiolated alkyl ketones that are challenging to be synthesized through alternative means.

Abstract
We hereby report the ortho-cyanomethylation of aryl fluoroalkyl sulfoxides with acetonitrile through a sulfonium-Claisen-type rearrangement. This reaction enables the incorporation of two valuable functional groups, such as the cyanomethyl group and the fluoroalkylthio group, into arenes. Remarkably, fluoroalkylthio groups, such as SCFH2 and SCF2H, bearing active hydrogen, are well tolerated by the reaction. The success of the reaction relies on the use of an excess amount of acetonitrile and the electronegative effect of fluoroalkyl substituents, both of which promote the electrophilic assembly of sulfoxides with acetonitrile. Consequently, the sulfonium-Claisen rearrangement reaction tolerates a wide variety of fluoroalkyl sulfoxides bearing functional groups including halides, nitriles, ketones, sulfones, and amides, which are appealing for subsequent elaboration and exploration.

Abstract
In the last few years, many reagents and protocols have been developed to allow for the efficient fluorofunctionalization of a diverse set of scaffolds ranging from alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and (hetero)arenes. The concomitant rise of organofluorine chemistry and visible light-mediated synthesis have synergistically expanded the fields and have mutually benefitted from developments in both fields. In this context, visible light driven formations of radicals containing fluorine have been a major focus for the discovery of new bioactive compounds. This review details the recent advances and progress made in visible light-mediated fluoroalkylation and heteroatom centered radical generation.

Abstract
Due to its unique physical and electrophilic properties, the difluoromethyl group (-CF2 H) has been playing an irreplaceable role in the field of pharmaceutical and agrochemical industry. Methods that could efficiently incorporate the difluoromethyl group into the target molecules are increasing in the recent years. Developing a stable and efficient difluoromethylating reagent is thus highly attractive. In this review, we describe the development of a nucleophilic difluoromethylation reagent [(SIPr)Ag(CF2 H)], including its elemental reaction, difluoromethylation reaction with different types of electrophiles, and its application in the synthesis of a nucleophilic and an electrophilic difluoromethylthiolating reagent.

Abstract
A novel oxidative cleavage and fluoromethylthiolation reaction of C═C bonds has been developed that represents the first and general method for the preparation of mono-, di-, and trifluoromethylthioesters from alkenes. The protocol features excellent product selectivity and substrate suitability. Various observations suggested that the protocol proceeded via a two-step radical process and that aldehyde was the key intermediate. What's more meaningful is that this route provides a new direction for converting alkenes into higher-value-added carbonyl-containing chemicals.

Abstract
The BnSRf (Rf = CF2H or CF3)/mCPBA/Tf2O system was found to be an effective multicomponent reagent system for the one-pot synthesis of di/trifluoromethylthiolated heterocycles from alkynes. The reaction was postulated to proceed via a cascade sequence involving the oxidation of BnSRf by mCPBA, activation of the in situ-generated sulfoxide by Tf2O, and intramolecular cyclization/fluoromethylthiolation of the alkyne substrates enabled by the formed electrophilic sulfonium salt to give di/trifluoromethylthiolated heterocycles.

Abstract
A direct electrophilic difluoroalkylthiolation reaction of indole derivatives and other electron-rich heterocycles using methyl 2,2-difluoro-2-(chlorsulfonyl)acetate (ClSO2CF2COOMe) derived from Chen's reagent (FSO2CF2COOMe) is described. The ester group in the product can be further utilized in subsequent versatile transformations. The reactions provide good yields of the corresponding difluoroalkylthiolation products and exhibit high functional group compatibility. It is expected to serve as an alternative and practical protocol for difluoroalkylthiolation of various heterocycles.

Abstract
A concise and efficient ring-opening difluorination strategy was developed for the synthesis of highly functionalized hydroxy-containing α,α-difluoro-β-ketoamides from the one-pot multicomponent reaction of 4-aminocoumarins, NFSI, and water in dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as a green solvent. The reactions were smoothly achieved under visible light irradiation in air at room temperature without the addition of any other external photocatalysts. With this protocol, various α,α-difluoro-β-ketoamides were successfully synthesized under mild conditions (25 examples, 73-91% yields). This transition-metal-free synthetic procedure shows good functional group compatibility and attractive practical potential for large-scale synthesis.

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
Herein, we report a method for unprecedented C3-selective C-H tri- and difluoromethylthiolation of pyridines. The method relies on borane-catalyzed pyridine hydroboration for generation of nucleophilic dihydropyridines; these intermediates react with trifluoromethylthio and difluoromethylthio electrophiles to form functionalized dihydropyridines, which then undergo oxidative aromatization. The method can be used for late-stage functionalization of pyridine drugs for the generation of new drug candidates.

Abstract
The cathodic reduction of bromodifluoromethyl phenyl sulfide (1) using o-phthalonitrile as a mediator generated the (phenylthio)difluoromethyl radical, which reacted with α-methylstyrene and 1,1-diphenylethylene to provide the corresponding adducts in moderate and high yields, respectively. In contrast, chemical reduction of 1 with SmI2 resulted in much lower product yields. The detailed reaction mechanism was clarified based on the cathodic reduction of 1 in the presence of deuterated acetonitrile, CD3CN.

Abstract
Herein, the first catalytic protocol for nickel-catalyzed ortho or para position difluoromethylation of various aromatic amines has been developed with the assistance of a bidentate phosphine ligand, offering an invaluable synthesis means to construct extensive p-difluoromethylated products and difluorooxindole derivatives with significant functional fragments. Furthermore, the gram-scale reaction, broad substrate scope, excellent functional-group compatibility, late-stage difluoromethylation of pesticides, and even formal synthesis of HDAC6 inhibitors further demonstrate the usefulness of this method.

Abstract
Herein, we developed palladium-catalyzed regio- and diastereoselective difluoromethylthiolation of acrylamides to form the Z-isomer product at room temperature. Using 8-aminoquinoline as a directing group, this protocol resulted in a high efficiency under mild reaction conditions and showed good functional group tolerances, which opens a novel synthetic methodology for accessing SCF2H-containing skeletons. Moreover, mechanistic studies were conducted to obtain insights into the reaction mechanism, and post-functionalization of the product reactions was performed.

Abstract
Here we report the design and synthesis of two new difluoro-diazoketone reagents (difluorophenylthiol diazoketone and difluorophenoxyl diazoketone) and their [3+2] cycloaddition reactions with aryldiazonium salts under silver catalysis conditions. This protocol enables regioselective access to a broad scope of difluorophenylthiol- and difluorophenoxyl-substituted tetrazole-carbinols in a one-pot operation. Further synthetic derivatizations including dephenylthiolation and unexpected phenylthiol group migration/fluorination allow the efficient preparation of α-difluoromethyl tetrazole-carbinols and α-trifluoromethyl tetrazole-thioethers.

Abstract
Conversion of carbonyl compounds, including aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids, into functionalized alkanes via deoxygenation would be highly desirable from a sustainability perspective and very enabling in chemical synthesis. This review covers the recent methodology development in carbonyl and carboxyl deoxygenative functionalizations, highlighting some typical and significant contributions in this field. These advances will be categorized based on types of bond formation, and in each part, selected examples will be discussed from their generalized mechanistic perspectives. Four summarized reactivity modes of aldehydes and ketones during the deoxygenation, namely, bis-electrophile, carbenoid, bis-nucleophile and alkyl radical, are presented, while the carboxylic acids are deoxygenated mainly via activated carbonyl or acetal intermediates.
