At a working potential of about +2.0 V (vs SCE) the carbon-sulfur electrode is a source of the electrogenerated cation S2+. In organic media, this electrophile reacts with thiols (or thiolates) to give a mixture of polysulfides of which the trisulfide is the main product. The reaction between electrogenerated Sy2- and alkyl halides is less selective. Elsevier,.
