Ni-catalyzed ortho-directed trifluoromethylthiolation of aryl chlorides and bromides

This thesis describes a novel method to generate trifluoromethanesulfenyl arene or heteroarene products via Ni-catalyzed ortho-selective C-X (X = Cl or Br) activation. Successful C-X activation requires directing groups, but it is highly selective and allows aryl chlorides to be used and shows an ap...
