Copper-mediated stereospecific C–H oxidative sulfenylation of terminal alkenes with disulfides

Abstract

A copper and iodine-mediated C–H oxidative sulfenylation of olefins with diaryl disulfides has been developed for the stereospecific synthesis of vinyl thioether. With the combination of Cu(OTf)2 and I2, a variety of terminal alkenes underwent oxidative coupling reaction with various diaryl disulfides successfully to afford the corresponding E-vinyl sulfides in moderate to good yields.
