Perhalogenmethylmercapto-heterocyclen, (VII) [1] konkurrenzreaktionen elektronenarmer,substituierter aromaten um die halogenmethylmercapto- BZW. Chlorgruppe von Cl3-nFnCSCl in starken saeuren

Electron-deficient aromatics, such as 2,5-bis(trifluoromethylmercapto)thiophene ($\text{1a}$) or (trifluoromethylmercapto)benzene ($\text{8a}$), react with F₃CSCl in the presence of F₃CSO₃ as a catalyst to give mainly 3-chloro-2,5-bis(trifluoromethylmercapto)thiophen ($\text{3a}$) and 1-chloro-4- or 2-(trifluoromethylmercapto)benzene ($\text{10}$, respectively.
