Abstract

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.
