摘要

A new tandem arylation/nucleophilic addition/fragmentation/C-S bond formation reaction involving diaryliodonium salts as electrophiles was developed with Cu(OTf)(2) as the catalyst. A series of unexpected bis(arylthio) imine derivatives were generated in good yields. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions, and the bis(arylthio)imines are readily transformed to other useful products.
