A novel HF₂CSO₂Na/Ph₂PCl/Me₃SiCl system is disclosed for the late-stage direct difluoromethylthiolation of Cₛₚ₂ and Cₛₚ₃ nucleophiles. Difluoromethylthiolation of phenols and naphthols proceeded nicely under this system to regioselectively provide corresponding SCF₂H compounds in good yields. Other substrates such as indoles, pyrroles, pyrazoles, enamines, ketones, and β-keto esters were also transformed to corresponding SCF₂H products in good yields. The late-stage direct difluoromethylthiolation of a number of natural products and pharmaceutically attractive molecules was also achieved.
