A for the preparation of ortho-trifluoromethyl-aniline or its derivatives (by machine translation)
The invention discloses a method for preparing o-trifluoromethyl phenylamine and derivatives thereof. According to the method, phenylamine or a phenylamine derivative serving as raw material reacts with a trivalent iodine reagent compound 2 in a solution under the protection of argon or nitrogen and illumination condition in the presence of tri(2-phenylpyridine)-iridium [Ir(ppy)3] serving as a catalyst to produce o-trifluorophenylamine or derivatives thereof 3, wherein the trivalent iodine reagent compound 2 has a structure shown in the specification. The method is mild in reaction conditions, the amino does not need to be protected, and trifluoromethyl substituted phenylamine or phenylamine derivatives can be directly obtained.

Visible-light-promoted radical C-H trifluoromethylation of free anilines
The trifluoromethyl-substituted anilines are biologically active compounds and useful building blocks. In this communication, we have developed the first visible-light-induced radical trifluoromethylation of free anilines with the commercially available and easily handled Togni reagent at room temperature. The resulting products were successfully transformed into a variety of valuable fluorine-containing molecules and heterocyclic compounds. This protocol provides an economical and powerful route to trifluoromethylated free anilines.
