Abstract

A general electrohemical strategy for the combined trifluoromethylation/C(sp^2)–H functionalization using Langlois' reagent as the CF_3 source under oxidant-free conditions was developed. Using Mn salts as the redox mediator, this method provides an efficient and sustainable means to access a variety of functionalized heterocycles bearing a CF_3 moiety. Detailed mechanistic studies are consistent with the formation of CF_3-bound high oxidation state Mn species, suggesting a transition-metal-mediated CF_3 transfer mechanism for this trifluoromethylation/C(sp^2)–H functionalization process.
