title: Palladium-catalyzed trifluoromethylthiolation of aryl C-H bonds.
abstract: A method for monotrifluoromethylthiolation of arenes via palladium-catalyzed directed C-H bond activation was described. The reaction was compatible with a variety of functional groups. Initial mechanistic studies disclosed that the turnover limiting step of the catalytic cycle did not involve C-H activation.
