Abstract

The kinetics of C–S coupling of phenylmagnesium bromide with phenyl arenesulfonates has been studied in THF:toluene (7:10) at 90 °C. Kinetic data and Hammett relationship are consistent with an asynchronous S Na mechanism in which rate determining thiophilic attack of carbanion takes place much ahead of phenoxy group departure.
