Abstract
A highly selective, environmentally friendly, and scalable electrochemical α-C(sp3)-H acyloxylation of sulfides enables the construction of α-acyloxy sulfides. The method offers exceptionally broad substrate scope, high regioselectivity, gram-scale synthesis, and construction of complex molecules.
