AI Article Synopsis

  • - The research presents a nickel-catalyzed reaction that involves decarbonylation or decarbonylation and decarboxylation of aryl anhydrides using thiophenols, leading to the formation of thioethers.
  • - A cost-effective and moisture-stable nickel(II) precatalyst is utilized to facilitate this process, making it accessible for practical applications.
  • - The method shows versatility, effectively accommodating various functional groups, yielding thioethers in moderate to excellent efficiencies.

Article Abstract

A nickel-catalyzed decarbonylation or decarbonylation accompanied by decarboxylation cross-coupling reaction of aryl anhydrides with thiophenols as coupling partners was disclosed. This method is promoted by a commercially available, moisture-stable, and inexpensive nickel(II) precatalyst. The process can tolerate a variety of functional groups using ubiquitous aryl anhydrides as cross-coupling precursors to produce thioethers in moderate to excellent yields.
