52. After completion of this work and during the preparation of this manuscript, a paper by Nevado on a related reaction achieved through the combination of the Togni's reagent with substoichiometric amounts of tetrabutylammonium iodide was reported. In comparison with this reported method, more inexpensive TMSCF3 and PhI(OAc)2 can be used to realize different types of carbotrifluoromethylation of alkenes; see: Kong, W.-Q.; Casimiro, M.; Fuentes, N.; Merino, E.; Nevado, C. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2013, 52, 13086.
