SummaryThe CF3SN moiety is a substituent with interesting properties. However, there is no easy synthetic access to molecules bearing this group. The trifluoromethanesulfenamide is a new reagent for the electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolation which reacts easily with amines to obtain trifluoromethylsulfanylamines with good yields.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
