An efficient method for selective and controllable sulfenylation of indoles to synthesize mono- and bis-sulfenylindoles was reported by using a novel aerobic catalytic oxidation system KI/SeO2 for sulfenylation of indoles with disulfide/thiols. The method is scalable, not sensitive to moisture, and can proceed without metalcatalyst.
