Abstract
This communication describes the development of a mild method for the cross-coupling of arylboronic acids with CF(3)I via the merger of photoredox and Cu catalysis. This method has been applied to the trifluoromethylation of electronically diverse aromatic and heteroaromatic substrates and tolerates many common functional groups.
