(1,10-Phenanthroline)(trifluoromethyl)copper(I)

CAS 1300746-79-5C13H8CuF3N2Chemical Synthesis

(1,10-Phenanthroline)(trifluoromethyl)copper(I), CAS 1300746-79-5, is a sophisticated copper(I) complex featuring a trifluoromethyl ligand coordinated to 1,10-phenanthroline. This stable, single-component reagent is primarily employed as a trifluoromethylating agent. It facilitates the efficient introduction of the trifluoromethyl group onto aryl iodides, even those that are electron-rich, electron-deficient, or sterically hindered, under mild reaction conditions. This makes it a valuable tool in synthetic organic chemistry.
