Abstract

A novel synthetic strategy to alkynyl sulfides via transition-metal-free catalyzed C–S coupling of 1, 1-dibromo-1-alkenes with thiophenols has been developed. The new strategy which avoided the transition-metal toxicities is environmental friendly and very important for alkynyl sulfides synthesis.
