Abstract

Abstract The heterogeneous Chan-Lam coupling reaction between thiols and arylboronic acids was achieved in EtOH at room temperature in the presence of 5 mol % of MCM-41-immobilized 1,10-phenanthroline-copper(II) complex [MCM-41-1,10-Phen-CuSO4] with n-Bu4NOH (40% aq) as base under O2 atmosphere, yielding a variety of unsymmetrical diaryl sulfides in good to excellent yields under mild and green conditions. The new heterogeneous copper complex can easily be prepared by a simple procedure from commercially readily available and inexpensive reagents, and recovered by a simple filtration of the reaction solution and recycled for at least eight times without significant loss of catalytic activity.
