    The trifluoroethyl aryl ethers are important motifs in drug molecules. However, a report devoted specifically to the study of transition-metal-catalyzed C–H trifluoroethoxylation has not been reported to date. A protocol of Pd­(II)-catalyzed <i>o</i>-C–H trifluoroethoxylation of a broad range of benzoic acid derivatives (i.e., <i>N</i>-sulfonylbenzamides) has been developed. This method is also applied to the formal synthesis of the drug molecule flecainide, wherein the first <i>m</i>-C–H trifluoroethoxylation is also exemplified
