Abstract
Integrating of the trifluoroethyl (-CH2CF3) group into the organic compounds by activating the distal C(sp3)-H bond is a challenging but crucial task in organic chemistry. This transformation imparts unique physicochemical properties to the compounds, such as enhanced lipophilicity, metabolic stability, and altered electronic characteristics. In this study, we unveil a new palladium-catalyzed method to directly introduce the trifluoroethyl group into amino acid and carboxylic acid derivatives. Remarkably, this method effectively activates the β-C(sp3)-H bond across various substrates at room temperature. Utilizing mesityl(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)iodonium triflate as a trifluoroethyl source, our approach selectively targets the distal β-C(sp3)-H bonds of amino and carboxylic acids, ensuring high chemoselectivity and enabling the straightforward synthesis of a diverse array of important γ-trifluoromethyl amino acid and carboxylic acid derivatives. Furthermore, the practical applicability of this methodology is demonstrated through its scalability for gram-scale synthesis.

Abstract
Synthesis and applications of fluoroalkyl and fluoroalkenyliodonium salts are summarized in this account article, focusing preferably to the reagents designed in our laboratory in the last decade. Among these reagents trifluoroethyl(aryl)iodonium salts have been used most frequently to build carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds in simple nucleophilic substitutions and through transition metal catalyzed coupling reactions. Iodonium salts equipped with unsaturated fluorinated function showed diverse reactivity due to their electron deficient character, and these molecular motifs enable cycloadditions and nucleophilic additions to prepare fluorinated carbo- and heterocyclic molecules. Beyond the overview of existing transformations, with the presented collection, we aim to inspire future developments of iodonium reagents and their application in organic synthesis.

Abstract
A straightforward 2,2,2-trifluoroethylation of acrylamides by Pd-catalyzed C-H bond activation was reported by using a fluorinated hypervalent iodine reagent as a coupling partner. At room temperature, this additive-free approach allowed the synthesis of Z-2,2,2-trifluoroethylated acrylamides (19 examples, up to 73% yield) in a stereoselective manner. Under these mild reaction conditions, the methodology turned out to be functional group tolerant and mechanistic studies gave us a better understanding of the transformation.

Abstract
The success of transition metal-catalysed ortho-directed C-H activation is often plagued by the effects of undesirable interactions between the directing group (DG) and other groups introduced into the aromatic core of the substrate. In particular, when these groups are in neighbouring positions, their interactions can affect profoundly the efficacy of the C-H activation by transition metals. In this work we introduce a simple substrate-only-based model to interpret the influence of steric hindrance of a group in ortho position to the DG in directed ortho-C-H bond activation reactions, and coined the term Ortho Effect (OE) for such situations. We consider simple descriptors such as torsion angle and torsional energy to predict and explain the reactivity of a given substrate in directed C-H activation reactions. More than 250 examples have been invoked for the model, and the nature of the ortho effect was demonstrated on a wide variety of structures. In order to guide organic chemists, we set structural and energetic criteria to evaluate a priori the efficiency of the metalation step which is usually the rate-determining event in C-H activations, i.e. we provide a simple and general protocol to estimate the reactivity of a potential substrate in C-H activation. For borderline cases these criteria help set the minimum reaction temperature to obtain reasonable reaction rates. As an example for the practical applicability of the model, we performed synthetic validations via palladium-catalysed 2,2,2-trifluoroethylation reactions in our lab. Furthermore, we give predictions for the necessary reaction conditions for several selected DGs.
