A novel method for the preparation of alkyl aryl sulfides through direct oxidationthiolation of commercial ethers with diaryl disulfides using di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) as the oxidant without a metal catalyst was established. The C(sp3)–Hbond in various ethers was successfully converted into a C–S bond, and the corresponding sulfides were achieved with moderate to high yields.
