Thiolation of carboxylic acids using a disulfide reagent having tetrafluoropyridinyl groups is described. The light-mediated process is performed using an acridine-type photocatalyst. Primary, secondary, tertiary, and heteroatom-substituted carboxylic acids can be thiolated, and the method can be applied to the late-stage modification of a range of naturally occurring compounds and drugs. The fluorinated pyridine fragment is believed to enable the C–S bond formation. The resulting sulfides were used as redox-active radical precursors.
