title: Iodine-mediated regioselective synthesis of vinyl triflones from styrenes with CF3SO2Na.
abstract: An unexpected regioselective synthesis of vinyl triflones was developed. This iodine-mediated C-H triflylation of styrenes with CF3SO2Na occurred at room temperature affording various vinyl triflones, which could be used for the preparation of other CF3SO2-containing compounds.
