Abstract

The electron-withdrawing trifluoromethylthio group (CF3S) could significantly alter the parent molecules’ lipophilicity and other chemical and biological properties. Development of synthetic methods for the introduction of CF3S group is an active topic in organic and medicinal chemistry. Presented in this chapter are newly developed synthetic methods and associated reagents for direct trifluoromethylthiolation of aromatic and heterocyclic compounds. Challenges for trifluoromethylthiolation are also discussed.
