Abstract

A copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of aryl- and alkenylboronic acids with Togni's reagent was described. The reaction proceeded in good to excellent yields for a range of different substrates including heteroarylboronic acids and substrates with a variety of functional groups under mild reaction conditions.
