Reagent for the nucleophilic introduction of trifluoromethyl groups

Togni reagent II is a highly effective electrophilic trifluoromethylating reagent. The reagent is a colorless, crystalline solid that soluble in polar organic solvents. It offers trifluoromethylation of carbon- and sulfur-centered nucleophiles, copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of unactivated olefins, trifluoromethylation of phenol derivatives, zinc-mediated formation of trifluoromethyl ethers from alcohols[1], [2]. Togni reagent II has a predictable positional selectivity and a high level of functional group compatibility[3]. But despite simple procedures and mild reaction conditions, the reagent has explosive properties that are important to remember when working with it[4].
