FSO2CF2CO2Me (MFSDA)是陈庆云院士课题组于1989年开发的一种十分有效的三氟甲基化试剂, 在学术界和工业界有着广泛地应用, 是我国有机氟化学领域早期最重要的研究成果之一, 该试剂也被命名为“陈试剂”. 此研究采用密度泛函理论(DFT)方法研究了碘化亚铜介导“陈试剂”形成三氟甲基亚铜的反应机理. 计算结果揭示了反应中碘化亚铜催化剂的双重作用: 一方面碘负离子通过进攻“陈试剂”中具有亲电性的甲基启动反应; 另一方面一价铜阳离子络合物捕获原位生成二氟卡宾形成二氟卡宾亚铜中间体. 发现与过去普遍假设的机理不同, (1)关键的脱羧过程并不需要一价铜阳离子参与, (2)三氟甲基是通过二氟卡宾亚铜中间体与氟离子络合后形成, 而非二氟卡宾直接捕获氟离子. 研究结果丰富了对“陈试剂”形成三氟甲基源的认识, 为进一步开发基于“陈试剂”的新反应提供了理论依据.

In 1989, Qing-Yun Chen’s research group at the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences reported the development of methyl fluorosulfonyldifluoroacetate (FSO2CF2CO2Me or MFSDA) as trifluoromethylation reagent. This reagent is now known as Chen’s reagent, which is perhaps the first well-recognized and widely used trifluoromethylation reagent originate from China. Despite the widespread use of Chen’s reagent in both academia and industry, the detailed mechanism underlying the conversion of Chen’s reagent into a trifluoromethyl source has remained elusive. In this contribution, we conducted a thorough investigation into the reaction mechanism, employing density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Geometry optimizations and frequency analyses were performed using the PBE0/def2-SVP level of theory. To ensure accurate electronic energy calculations, single-point energy calculations were conducted at the ωB97X-D/def2-TZVPP level of theory. The solvent effects were considered using the solvation model density (SMD) model during both geometry optimizations and single-point energy calculations. Furthermore, Gibbs free energies were corrected with GoodVibes, employing Truhlar et al.’s quasi-harmonic treatment by setting all positive frequencies less than 100 to 100 cm–1. Concentration corrections were applied from 1 atm to 1 mol/L. Our calculations reveal the detailed mechanism governing the generation of copper(I) trifluoromethyl from Chen’s reagent in the presence of a CuI catalyst. An in-depth understanding of such mechanistic details would be helpful for future development of new reaction and application with Chen’s reagent.
