t-BuOK-promoted methylthiolation of aryl fluorides with dimethyldisulfide under transition-metal-free and mild conditions

In the presence of potassium tert-butoxide (t-BuOK), the cross-coupling reaction between aryl fluorides and dimethyldisulfide was developed. A series of aryl methyl sulfides were obtained in moderate to good yields under transition-metal-free and mild conditions.

Copper-Catalyzed Methylthiolation of Aryl Iodides and Bromides with Dimethyl Disulfide in Water

An efficient route to aryl methyl sulfides through the copper-catalyzed coupling reaction of aryl iodides or bromides with dimethyl disulfide in water is described. Electron-donating and electron-withdrawing functional groups in the substrates were tolerated, and the corresponding products were obtained in moderate to good yields.

1,3-Dilithiobenzene and 1,4-Dilithiobenzene

Using the method of iodine-lithium exchange, 1,3- and 1,4-dilithiobenzene have been generated in solution and isolated in a dry state for the first time.The dilithium compounds are not formed from the corresponding dibromobenzenes.
