A practical synthesis of perfluoroalkyl sulfides is described. The method employs stable and readily accessible thiosulfonates as new electrophiles with commercial nucleophilic perfluoroalkylating reagents. The mild reaction conditions allow access to a wide variety of both aryl- and alkyl-substituted perfluoroalkyl sulfides amenable to pharmaceutical development. Furthermore, the reaction operation is straightforward, odorless, does not produce toxic wastes, and, therefore should appeal to practitioners in industrial-scale productions.

TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) is well-established in orangocatalysis that usually work in synergy with transition-metal catalysis or semiconductor photocatalysis. Here, TEMPO was turned into a visible light photocatalyst to conduct the selective aerobic oxidation of thiols into disulfides. With O2 as an oxidant, a mild and efficient protocol for the selective oxidation of thiols into disulfides including symmetrical and unsymmetrical ones with 5 molpercent of TEPMO as a photocatalyst was developed at room temperature under the irradiation of 460 nm blue LEDs. It was found that a complex formed between TEMPO and thiols underpinned the visible light activity and disulfides were obtained in very high isolated yields. This work suggests that TEMPO takes diverse roles in for photocatalytic selective oxidative transformations with O2 as the oxidant.
