3-Mercaptopropionic Acid: A New Tool in the Synthesis of Symmetrical Diaryl Sulfides from Unactivated Aryl Iodides as Substitute for Anhydrous Sodium Sulfide
Rabai, Jozsef
, p. 523 - 525 (1989)
A series of symmetrical diaryl sulfides has been prepared by the copper-catalyzed reaction of 3-mercaptopropionic acid with unactivated aryl iodides.The yields are comparable with those obtained using anhydrous sodium sulfide under optimized reaction conditions.
