title: Photoorganocatalysed and visible light photoredox catalysed trifluoromethylation of olefins and (hetero)aromatics in batch and continuous flow.
abstract: Trifluoromethylation of olefins and (hetero)aromatics with sodium triflinate as CF3 source and readily accessible benzophenone derivatives as photosensitisers has been developed in batch and flow. The use of an iridium-based photocatalyst enables the trifluoromethylation to proceed under visible light irradiation.
