A transition-metal-free synthetic method has been developed for the synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl chalcogenides (S, Se, and Te) from diaryl dichalcogenides and arenes under oxidative conditions by using potassium persulfate at room temperature. Variously substituted arenes such as anisole, thioanisole, diphenyl ether, phenol, naphthol, di- and trimethoxy benzenes, xylene, mesitylene, N,N-dimethylaniline, bromine-substituted arenes, naphthalene, and diaryl dichalcogenides underwent carbon-chalcogen bond-forming reaction to give unsymmetrical diaryl chalcogenides in trifluoroacetic acid. To understand the mechanistic part of the reaction, a detailed in situ characterization of the intermediates has been carried out by 77Se NMR spectroscopy by using diphenyl diselenide as the substrate. 77Se NMR study suggests that electrophilic species ArE+ is generated by the reaction of diaryl dichalcogenide with persulfate in trifluoroacetic acid. The electrophilic attack of arylchalcogenium ion on the arene may be responsible for the formation of the aryl-chalcogen bond.

The reactions of bromonaphthalenediazonium tetrafluoroborates (6a,b and 11a,b) with sodium benzenethiolate in DMSO give, through the preliminary formation of the corresponding diazosulfides (7a,b and 12a,b) bis(phenylthio)naphthalenes (8a,b and 13a,b) deriving from substitution of both the diazo group and the bromine.Isolated diazosulfides (7a,b and 12a,b) likewise furnish satisfactory yields of dinitriles (9a,b and 14a,b) by reaction with excess tetrabutylammonium cyanide in DMSO under photostimulation by a sunlamp.The intervention of an SRN1 process accounting for the formation of the disubstitution products is postulated.
