Metal-and Oxidant-Free Electrochemical Synthesis of Aryl Sulfides

A metal- and oxidant-free electrochemical synthesis of aryl sulfides was developed through a C–H sulfidation reaction of arenes and disulfides. Compared with traditional organic synthesis methods, this direct electrochemical approach efficiently generates aryl sulfides under catalyst- and oxidant-free conditions with the superiorities of wide substrate compatibility, mild reaction condition and waster free. At room temperature, various aryl...
