Abstract

An efficient protocol for carbon–sulfur bond formation is developed, which involves the cross-coupling of sulfenyl chlorides and arylboronic acids catalyzed by a novel palladium–Schiff base complex. Good to high product yields, short reaction times, and mild reaction conditions are important features of this new method.
