a nickel-catalyzed reductive aryl thiocarbonylation
of alkene via thioester group transfer strategy by using simple and
readily available thioesters. In contrast to traditional activation
of weaker C(acyl)–S bond, the C(acyl)–C bond of thioester
was selectively cleaved to enable this reaction under mild conditions.
Furthermore, this approach features operational simplicity and broad
substrate scope, providing a complementary and practical route for
thioester synthesis without requiring toxic thiol or CO gas.
