The redox potential gap between arylsulfonium salts and [Me4N][SeCF3] has been clearly revealed by CV measurements. Construction of the carbon-selenium bond by overcoming this gap without using catalysts and additives is a challenging task. Here, the authors report an efficient visible-light-induced cross-coupling of arylsulfonium triflates, e.g., 5-[4-(4-cyanophenoxy)phenyl]-5H-thianthren-5-ium triflate, with [Me4N][SeCF3] by simply mixing these two species, which allowed the facile synthesis of various aryl trifluoromethyl selenoethers, e.g., ArSeCF3 (Ar = 2-formyl-4-methoxyphenyl, N-methylcarbazol-6-yl, benzodioxol-5-yl, etc.) under catalyst- and additive-free conditions. The mechanistic study indicated that aryl and SeCF3 radicals might be formed as key intermediates in the reactions. Merits of the reactions include operational simplicity, high efficiency, visible-light irradiation, good functional group tolerance, a wide range of substrates, excellent chemoselectivity, and good yields of (trifluoromethyl)selenolated products, which combined with a sulfenylation process enabled the selective and practical installation of SeCF3 moieties onto complex arenes, including drug mols., via a formal C-H functionalization.
