Abstract

An electrochemically promoted oxidative dehydrogenation cross-coupling reaction between aldehyde hydrazones and thiophenols is demonstrated for the first time, which resulted in a variety of (Z)-thioetherified products in moderate to excellent yields. This strategy can be carried out under an air atmosphere, featuring scalability and excellent stereoselectivity. In addition, the transformation efficiently produces readily recyclable disulfide as a by-product with high yields, which significantly reduces the environmental pollution caused by thioetherification.
