We have proven that pyridine-boryl complexes can be used as superelectron donors to promote the coupling of thiols and aromatic halides through a SRN1 mechanism. The reaction is efficient for a broad substrate scope, tolerating heterocycles including pyridines, enolizable or reducible functional groups. The method has been applied to intermediates in drug synthesis as well as interesting functionalized polythioethers through a controlled and consecutive intramolecular electron transfer process.

An efficient and practical synthetic protocol to synthesize nonsymmetrical aryl thioethers by nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reaction of nitroarenes by thiols with potassium phosphate as the catalyst is described. Various moderate to strong electron-withdrawing functional groups are tolerated by the system to provide thioethers in a good to excellent yields. We also showed that the present method allows access to 3 drug examples in a short reaction time. Finally, mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction may form the classic Meisenheimer complex through a two-step addition-elimination mechanism.

In this article, we have presented a novel and efficient method for the direct synthesis of unsymmetrical sulfides through the copper(I)-catalyzed cross-coupling of 2-nitro benzenesulfonamides with thiols in the presence of catalytic amount of CuI in DMF as solvent at 100 °C. In addition, the products were obtained in high to excellent yields. More importantly, the novel system showed the primary 2-nitro benzenesulfonamides as a new coupling partner and regioselectively promoted C–S bond-forming transformations through the cleavage of Ar–SO2NH2 bonds.
