Abstract
Positron emission tomography (PET) is becoming increasingly important in nuclear medicine and drug discovery. To date, the development of many potential PET tracers is hampered by the lack of suitable synthetic pathways for their preparation. This is particularly true for the highly desired radiolabeling of compounds bearing [18F]CF3-groups. For instance, S(O)nCF3-groups (n=0, 1, 2) serve as structural motif in a range of biologically active compounds, but their radiosynthesis remains largely unprecedented (for n=1, 2). Herein, we describe general methods for the radiosynthesis of 18F-labeled aryl trifluoromethyl sulfones, -sulfoxides, and -sulfides. All three methods are operationally straightforward, start from widely available precursors, i.e., sulfonyl fluorides and thiophenols, and make use of the recently established [18F]Ruppert-Prakash reagent. Further, the syntheses display good functional group tolerance as demonstrated by the 18F-labeling of more than 40 compounds. The applicability of the new method is demonstrated by the radiolabeling of three bioactive molecules, optionally to be used as PET tracers. In a broader context, this work presents a substantial expansion of the chemical space of radiofluorinated structural motifs to be used for the development of new PET tracers.

Abstract
Thiophenol (PhSH), a highly reactive aromatic thiol, plays an essential role as a common industrial raw material in food, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. In this work, we designed and constructed two fluorescent probes CM-PhSH and CM-Ratio-PhSH by a rational strategy. Specifically, coumarin fluorophores with excellent optical properties were modified, and olefinic unsaturated bonds served as reaction sites for the detection of PhSH. Based on this, the introduction of the nitro group at specific positions of the CM-PhSH changed the fluorescence emission of the CM-Ratio-PhSH, eventually obtaining a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe CM-Ratio-PhSH for PhSH detection. Surprisingly, these two probes exhibited advantages such as high specificity and low limit of detection (LOD) for CM-PhSH 32.3 nM and CM-Ratio-PhSH 40.2 nM, respectively. Furthermore, subsequent experiments demonstrated CM-PhSH and CM-Ratio-PhSH could be successfully used for highly selective and rapid detection of PhSH in aqueous solutions, live cells, and complex food samples.

Abstract
An efficient trifluoromethylation of 2-isocyanobiaryls was developed through the constant current electrolysis, employing sodium trifluoromethanesulfinate (CF3SO2Na) as the trifluoromethyl source. The method enabled the syntheses of a series of 6-(trifluoromethyl)phenanthridine derivatives in moderate to high yields under metal- and oxidant-free conditions. A gram-scale synthesis highlights the synthetic versatility of the reported protocol.

Abstract
A simple protocol of metal-free C-H trifluoromethylation of hydrazones via electrolysis was developed. This environment-friendly transformation showed high efficiency, good tolerance, and scaled-up functionalization, providing the desired products in moderate to good yields. At the same time, a high yield can be obtained for the substrates either bearing an electron-donating group or an electron-withdrawing group by using different trifluoromethyl reagents. In addition, the radical mechanism was confirmed by the control experiment.

Abstract
We investigated the electrochemical sulfenylation reaction in both batch and continuous flow regimes, involving thiophenols/thiols and enol-acetates to yield α-sulfenylated ketones, without using additional oxidants or catalysts. Studies with different electrolytes were also performed, revealing that quaternary ammonium salts are the best mediators for this reaction. Notably, during the study of the reaction scope, a Boc-cysteine proved to be extremely tolerant to our protocol, thus increasing its relevance. The methodology also proved to be scalable in both batch and continuous flow conditions, opening up possibilities for further studies since these relevant functional groups are important moieties in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Trifluoromethylation reaction is one of the significant and practical organic chemical reactions, and the design and discovery of novel trifluoromethylation reagents have been attracting more and more attention. Trifluoromethyl-substituted organic hydride compounds (XH) have the potential to be novel trifluoromethylation reagents in organic synthesis due to the favorable tendency of XH˙+ releasing ˙CF3 to form stable aromatic structures in terms of thermodynamics. The key elementary step of the trifluoromethylation is the radical cation (XH˙+) generation by catalysis or single-electron activation releasing ˙CF3 to form a stable aromatic structure, which also provides the thermodynamic driving force of the chemical process. In this work, 47 new trifluoromethylation reagent candidates of XHs were designed and calculated for the Gibbs free energy and activation free energy [ΔG‡RD(XH˙+)] of XH˙+ releasing ˙CF3 using the density functional theory (DFT) method, in order to quantitatively measure the reactivity of XHs as trifluoromethylation reagents, and to establish the molecular library as well as reactivity database of novel trifluoromethylation reagents for synthetic chemists. According to the and ΔG‡RD(XH˙+) values, all the XHs can be reasonably divided into 3 classes, including class 1 (excellent trifluoromethylation reagents), class 2 (potential trifluoromethylation reagents) and class 3 (not trifluoromethylation reagents). To our delight, 15 XHs with a 1,4-dihydropyridine structure and 3 XHs with a 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-one structure are identified to be novel excellent and potential trifluoromethylation reagents, respectively, according to their reactivity data. The relationship between the structural features, including methylation, heteroatom, substituents, conjugated structure and so on, and the reactivity of XHs as trifluoromethylation reagents are also discussed in this work. The computation results indicate that trifluoromethyl-substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine compounds and 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-one analogues could be possible trifluoromethylation reagents in organic synthesis. This work may provide the theoretical basis and references for discovering organic hydride compounds as novel reagents for trifluoromethylation or other alkylation reactions.

Abstract
Carbohydrates play essential roles in various physiological and pathological processes. Trifluoromethylated compounds have wide applications in the field of medicinal chemistry. Herein, we report a practical and efficient trifluoromethylation of glycals by an electrochemical approach using CF3SO2Na as the trifluoromethyl source and MnBr2 as the redox mediator. A variety of trifluoromethylated glycals bearing different protective groups are obtained in 60-90% yields with high regioselectivity. The successful capture of a CF3 radical indicates that a radical mechanism is involved in this reaction.
