Abstract

The reaction of aryl halides with ethyl potassium xanthogenate in the presence of MOF-199 provides O-Ethyl-S-aryl carbonodithioates as intermediates, that can be converted into symmetrical diaryl disulfides, unsymmetrical aryl alkyl(aryl′) disulfides by the reaction with S-alkyl(aryl) sulfurothioates (Bunte salts) as well as unsymmetrical aryl alkyl(aryl′) sulfides.
