Abstract
A simple and efficient cross-coupling of aryl halides with different alkyl disulfides under mild conditions was developed. This C–S bond formation method was carried out in the absence of transition-metal and external photosensitizer under air. Excellent yields were obtained with a broad substrate scope under mild conditions, tolerating various functional groups.
