As a trifluoromethylthio (CF3S) group is reported to improve properties of chemicals, it is gathering more attention in pharmaceutical and agricultural chemistry.1,2) Unlike conventional trifluoromethylthiolating agents, TTST contains no metals such as expensive silver. In addition, TTST has no high molecular weight organic parts such as imides. Therefore, TTST does not generates high molecular organic wastes after the reactions.

For example, it is reported that replacement of methylthio group in MTA (= 5'-(Methylthio)-5'-deoxyadenosine) to trifluoromethylthio group enhanced growth inhibition of malarial parasite P. falciparum.3)
