Abstract
An efficient Ru-catalyzed regioselective allylic trifluoromethylthiolation reaction of allylic carbonates was developed. The linear allylic trifluoromethyl thioethers were obtained in 52-91% yields. Mechanistic investigation revealed that this reaction proceeds via a double allylic trifluoromethylthiolation sequence.
