Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of a bistrifluoromethylated organocuprate [Ph4P]+[Cu(CF3)2]? and its reactions with a variety of activated heteroaryl bromides, chlorides and iodides were described. These results showed that complex [Ph4P]+[Cu(CF3)2]? can serve as a trifluoromethylating reagent.
