Abstract

A general method for the preparation of fluoroalkylthioesters including trifluoromethylthio/pentafluoroethylthio/difluoromethylthio/monofluoromethylthio-esters from aldehydes and a corresponding fluoroalkylthiolating reagent was reported. The reactions were conducted under mild conditions and various common functional groups such as fluorine, chloride, bromide, iodide, and ester groups were compatible.
