We herein report an unprecedented xanthate-based protocol for the preparation of aryl-alkyl thioethers. Heating xanthates with aryl halides and namely cesium carbonate in methanol provides the target thioethers in generally good yields within short reaction times. This method allows one to avoid contact with odorous thiols and also to introduce substituents of which the corresponding thiols are virtually unavailable or inconvenient in use.

A highly efficient Cu-catalyzed dual C-S bonds formation reaction, proceeding in alcohol and water under air, is reported, in which inodorous stable Na2S2O3 is used as a sulfurating reagent. This powerful strategy provides a practical and efficient approach to construct thioethers, using readily available aromatic amines and alkyl halides as starting materials. Sensitive and synthetic useful functional groups could be tolerated. Furthermore, pharmaceuticals, glucose, an amino acid, and a chiral ligand are successfully furnished by this late-stage sulfuration strategy.
