• trifluoromethylation; 19F NMR kinetics; nitration; organo-fluorine; Introduction Since the advent of the hypervalent-iodine-based electrophilic trifluoromethylation reagents 1 and 2 in 2006 they have found widespread application in organic synthesis (Figure 1) [1][2][3][4]. Recently, increasing interest has been
