3-CF3S substituted thioflavones and benzothiophenes were achieved via the reactions of AgSCF3 with methylthiolated alkynones and alkynylthioanisoles, respectively, promoted by persulfate. This protocol possesses good functional group tolerance and high yields. Mechanistic studies suggested that a classic two-step radical process was involved, which includes addition of CF3S radical to triple bond and cyclization with SMe moiety.

The photocatalytic reaction of o-methylthio-arenediazonium salts with alkynes yields substituted benzothiophenes regioselectively through a radical annulation process. Green light irradiation of eosin Y initiates the photoredox catalysis. The scope of the reaction was investigated by using various substituted diazonium salts and different alkynes.
Sulfur-alkyne cyclizations for formation of dihydrothiophenes and annulated thiophenes
McDonald, Frank E.,Burova, Svetlana A.,Huffman Jr., Larry G.
, p. 970 - 974 (2007/10/03)
Cycloisomerization of homopropargylic thiols to dihydrothiophenes is promoted by group VI metal carbonyls. Related thiacyclization transformations under basic and radical conditions are also described, including regioselective formation of benzothiophenes from aryl methyl sulfides and alkynes.
