4-Aryl-1,2,3-thiadiazoles as Alkynyl Thiolate Surrogates in the Reactions with Diaryliodonium Salts: a Transition-Metal-Free Route to Alkynyl Aryl Sulfides

The use of readily available 1,2,3-thiadiazoles as surrogates of transient alkynyl thiolate anions and diaryliodonium salts as arylating agents allowed for the first time the synthesis of alkynyl aryl sulfides...
