Thiofluorination of Carbon-Carbon Multiple Bonds Using Electrochemically Generated ArS(ArSSAr)+BF4-

The reaction of alkenes and alkynes with ArS(ArSSAr)(+)BF4-, which was generated and accumulated by the low-temperature anodic oxidation of ArSSAr in Bu4NBF4/CH2Cl2, led to the addition of an ArS group and fluoride across the carbon-carbon multiple bond to give thio-fluorinated compounds in good yields.
