Pentafluorophenyl (PFP) sulfonic esters were synthesized via a copper-catalyzed one-pot multicomponent reaction of aryl diazonium tetrafluoroborate, DABSO (DABCO·(SO2)2), and pentafluorophenol. The reaction system provided the desired pentafluorophenyl sulfonic esters in good yields and exhibited excellent functional group tolerance. In addition, the generated PFP sulfonic esters were successfully applied in Sonogashira, Suzuki, Chan-Evans-Lam, and decarboxylative coupling reactions.
