posted on 2015-04-17, 00:00 authored by Poonam Sharma, Sandeep Rohilla, Nidhi JainAn unprecedented copper acetate–DMSO
promoted methylthiolation
of arenes and heteroarenes in the presence of air has been developed.

of pyridine and pyrimidine functional units and gives the thiomethylated
product in moderate to high yields.
