A new catalytic protocol for the synthesis of selenoesters from aryl iodides and diaryl diselenides has been developed, where formic acid was employed as an efficient, low-cost, and safe substitute for toxic and gaseous CO. This protocol presents a high functional group tolerance, providing access to a large family of selenoesters in high yields (up to 97%) while operating under mild reaction conditions, and avoids the use of selenol which is difficult to manipulate, easily oxidizes, and has a bad odor. Additionally, this method can be efficiently extended to the synthesis of thioesters with moderate-to-excellent yields, by employing for the first time diorganyl disulfides as precursors.

Functional group transfer reactions are an important synthetic tool in modern organic synthesis. Herein, we developed a new palladium-catalyzed intermolecular transthioetherification reaction of aryl halides with thioethers and thioesters. The synthetic utility and practicality of this catalytic protocol are demonstrated in a wide range of successful transformations (>70 examples). This catalytic protocol is applicable in carbonylative coupling processes as well, and the first example of carbonylative methylthioesterification of aryl halides has been achieved. Notably, this work also provides an approach to using natural products, such as methionine and selenomethionine, as the functional group sources.
Indium-catalyzed direct conversion of lactones into thiolactones using a disilathiane as a sulfur source

An indium-catalyzed reaction of lactones and a disilathiane leading to thiolactones is described. The direct synthesis of thiolactones from lactones with an appropriate sulfur source is one of the most attractive approaches in organic and pharmaceutical chemistry. In this context, we found an indium-catalyzed direct conversion of lactones into thiolactones in the presence of elemental sulfur and a hydrosilane via formation of the disilathiane in situ. On the basis of the previous reaction, the application utilizing the disilathiane as a sulfur source was performed herein for the efficient synthesis of a variety of thiolactone derivatives from lactones by an indium catalyst.
