Abstract
A simple method to convert readily available carboxylic acids into sulfinate salts by employing an interrupted Barton decarboxylation reaction is reported. A medicinally oriented panel of ten new sulfinate reagents was created using this method, including a key trifluoromethylcyclopropanation reagent, TFCS-Na. The reactivity of six of these salts towards C-H functionalization was field-tested using several different classes of heterocycles. © 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
