Abstract
Easily available aryl and alkyl thiocyanates were converted into the corresponding (benzenesulfonyl)difluoromethyl thioethers via the direct nucleophilic substitution of ((difluoromethyl)-sulfonyl)benzene under transition metal free conditions. Combined with various thiocyanation methods, this reaction can allow late-stage (benzenesulfonyl)difluoromethylthiolation of alkyl halides and aryl diazonium salts.
