Visible-light-initiated catalyst-free trifluoromethylselenolation of arylsulfonium salts with [Me<sub>4</sub>N][SeCF<sub>3</sub>]
Zeyu Tian, Cheng‐Pan Zhang
Abstract
Catalyst-free visible-light irradiation has leveraged the big redox potential gaps between arylsulfonium salts and [Me 4 N][SeCF 3 ], which combined with sulfenylation processes offers convenient and selective C–H trifluoromethylselenolation.
