Abstract

During the last decade, the use of homogenous gold catalysts for organic transformations has enjoyed tremendous popularity among chemists working in the field of catalysis and organic synthesis. 1 To date, gold complexes have been employed for efficient C–C, C–N, C–S, and C–O bond-forming reactions. Since aryl or alkyl thioethers were known to be important for many biologically active and pharmaceutical compounds, 2 the formation of C–S bonds ...
