Upon activation under superacid conditions, functionalized tailor-made N-SCF
3 sulfenamides served as reagents for the trifluoromethylthiolation of aromatic amines. This method has a broad substrate scope and can be used for the late-stage functionalization of complex molecules such as alkaloids or steroids. Mechanistic studies based on in situ low-temperature NMR spectroscopy revealed the involvement of dicationic superelectrophilic intermediates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
