Abstract
Trifluoromethylated heterocyclic compounds have played an increasingly significant role in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials. This is because the introduction of trifluoromethyl could enhance the lipophilicity, metabolic stability, and pharmacokinetic properties of heterocyclic drug molecules. Therefore, the synthesis of trifluoromethylated heterocyclics has become a major subject of research. The construction of trifluoromethylated heterocyclics via the annulation of trifluoromethyl building blocks with suitable partners has been proved to be a powerful strategy. In this review, we systematically summarize and discuss recent advances in the preparation of trifluoromethyl-containing heterocyclics via trifluoromethyl building block strategies over the period from 2019 to the present.

Abstract
Presented herein are novel syntheses of CF3-isoquinolinones and imidazole fused CF3-isoquinolinones based on the cascade reactions of 2-aryloxazolines with trifluoromethyl imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides. The formation of CF3-isoquinolinone involves an intriguing cascade process including oxazolinyl group-assisted aryl alkylation through C(sp2)-H bond metalation, carbene formation, migratory insertion, and proto-demetalation followed by intramolecular condensation and water-promoted oxazolinyl ring-scission. With this method, the isoquinolinone scaffold tethered with valuable functional groups was effectively constructed. By taking advantage of the functional groups embedded therein, the products thus obtained could be readily transformed into imidazole-fused CF3-isoquinolinones or coupled with some clinical drugs to furnish hybrid compounds with potential applications in drug development. In general, the developed protocols feature expeditious and convenient formation of valuable CF3-heterocyclic skeletons, broad substrate scope, and ready scalability. In addition, studies on the activity of selected products against some human cancer cell lines demonstrated their potential as lead compounds for the development of novel anticancer drugs.

Abstract
A rhodium(III)-catalyzed aldehydic C(sp2)-H imidoylmethylation of quinolin-8-carboxaldehydes with CF3-imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides (TFISYs) has been developed for the generation of α-imino ketones, which could be readily tautomerized to enaminones in moderate to excellent yields. In the transformation, TFISYs act as a kind of masked alkenylating reagents for the aldehyde moiety, and the obtained CF3-enaminone products have been successfully converted into other useful trifluoromethyl-substituted heterocycles.

Abstract
A copper-mediated [3 + 2] cyclization of CF3-imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides and terminal alkynes has been demonstrated. This work provides a practical approach for assembling 5-trifluoromethylpyrroles with the merits of a broad substrate scope, good functional tolerance, and mild reaction conditions. Control experiments and DFT studies indicate that this reaction may involve the addition of π-bonds of terminal alkynes by copper-carbene radicals and hydrogen migration.

Abstract
We have found a chameleonic reactivity of imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides. On the one hand, imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides react with electron-deficient reagents, such as alkynyl esters, to lead to the formation of 1,2-dihydro-pyridines. The methyl group attached to the sulfur atom acts as a methylene donor. On the other hand, imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides react with pyridinium 1,4-zwitterionic thiolates, which leads to the formation of functionalized pyrroles. Both transformations feature mild reaction conditions and good functional group tolerance.

Abstract
CF3-substituted imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides (TFISYs) are extraordinarily versatile and powerful synthons for use in cyclization chemistry that affords diverse CF3-substituted N-heterocycles. We first reacted TFISYs as a two-atom synthon with readily available azoalkenes and then subjected the products to metal-free formal (4+2) cycloaddition chemistry. This protocol features mild conditions and broad substrate scope, is simple to operate, and provides highly functionalized trifluoromethylpyridazines that are widely found in bioactive molecules.
