Abstract

The nucleophilic trifluoromethylthiolation of benzyl bromides using (bpy)Cu(SCF3) gave the desired products of benzyl trifluoromethyl sulfides in good to excellent yields. A diverse set of important functional groups including cyano, nitro, ester, alkoxy, halide, and heterocyclic groups can be well tolerated in the protocol.
