The incorporation of the (trifluoromethyl)thio group into the isocoumarin scaffold through a Lewis‐acid‐mediated electrophilic cyclization reaction of 2‐(2‐alkynyl)benzoates with trifluoromethanesulfanylamide is reported. The transformation proceeds well in the presence of BiCl 3 and BF 3 · Et 2 O under mild conditions to give 4‐[(trifluoromethyl)thio]‐1 H ‐isochromen‐1‐ones regioselectively and in good yields.
