benzenethiols. The method involves copper(I) iodidecatalyzed coupling of thiols with H-phosphonates in the presence of triethylamine. The reaction proceeds effectively to afford the corresponding thiophosphates in moderate to good yields via an aerobic dehydrogenative coupling of H-phosphonates with benzenethiols. This method is easy, rapid, and good-yielding for the synthesis of thiophosphates from benzenethiols
