Copper-Catalyzed Double S-Arylation of Potassium Thioacetate with Dibenziodolium Triflates: Facile Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Dibenzothiophenes

Much interest has been paid to cyclic diaryliodonium salts as bis(electrophile)s in transition-metal-catalyzed annulation reactions to produce polycyclic (hetero)aromatic hydrocarbons. Herein, we report that dibenziodolium triflates smoothly react with potassium thioacetate in the presence of CuCl2in THF or DMSO at 100–110 °C to afford the corresponding dibenzothiophenes in good-to-high yields. The coupling reaction tolerates reactive functional groups such as chloro and cyano and serves as a facile and reliable method for the synthesis of unsymmetrical dibenzothiophenes.

N-Benzyldithiocarbamate Salts as Sulfur Sources to Access Tricyclic Thioheterocycles Mediated by Copper Species

Using an easily prepared triethylammonium N-benzyldithiocarbamate salt as a sulfur source, a dual C?S functionalization of cyclic diaryliodoniums to form tricyclic thioheterocycles is realized. Our method uses the readily available copper sulfate to accelerate the chemical transformation under mild conditions. A broad range of cyclic diaryliodoniums with a ring size from 5- to 7-membered can be employed to gain a quick access to tricyclic thioheterocycles including dibenzothiophenes, thioxanthenes, and phenoxathiines. (Figure presented.).

Palladium catalyzed aryl(alkyl)thiolation of unactivated arenes

A general palladium-catalyzed aryl(alkyl)thiolation of various substituted unactivated arenes is accomplished for the synthesis of diverse unsymmetrical diaryl(alkyl) sulfides in good yield employing electrophilic sulfur reagent 6 derived from succinimide. The developed strategy was coupled with intramolecular arylation of a C-H bond to afford dibenzothiphene derivatives, an important moiety in material science as organic semiconductors.
