Novel C-H functionalization of arenes: palladium-catalyzed synthesis of diaryl sulfides.
A novel protocol for the direct arylthiolation of electron-rich arenes is described. Applying arylsulfonyl cyanides in the presence of catalytic amounts of Pd allows for a straightforward synthesis of diaryl sulfides.
