1,1,1‐Trifluoro‐ N ‐[oxido(phenyl)(trifluoromethyl)‐λ 4 ‐sulfanylidene]methanesulfonamide reacts with carbanions bearing a leaving group to give vicarious nucleophilic substitution (VNS) of hydrogen products with moderate yields. This is the first example of the VNS process at a benzene ring activated by an electron‐withdrawing group other than a nitro group. The orientation of the substitution is exclusively para . Findings open a large possibility for exploration of the scope of the VNS reaction on to compounds activated with sulfur‐based electron‐withdrawing groups. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
