title: An efficient copper-catalyzed carbon-sulfur bond formation protocol in water.
abstract: An efficient protocol of copper-catalyzed C-S bond formation between aryl halides and potassium thiocyanate leading to diaryl sulfides is reported. A variety of diaryl sulfides can be synthesized in good to excellent yields up to 94%.
