title: Synthesis of Aryl Sulfides: Metal-Free C-H Sulfenylation of Electron-Rich Arenes.
abstract: A simple, efficient, and practical metal-free C-H sulfenylation of substituted electron-rich arenes has been developed. This method is highly regioselective, and the corresponding aryl sulfides were obtained in moderate to excellent yields from stable and readily accessible N-(alkylthio)- and N-(arylthio)succinimides at room temperature in the presence of TFA.
