The direct 3-arylthiolation of indoles with aromatic thiols has been achieved in the presence of Selectfluor™ under mild conditions to produce 3-arylthioindoles in relatively good to excellent yields and with high selectivity. This method is effective even with 2-unsubstituted indoles.
The direct sulfenylation of indoles with aromatic thiols has been accomplished in the presence of 20 mol% of FeCl3 in refluxing acetonitrile to produce 3-arylthioindoles in relatively good to excellent yields and with high selectivity.

An efficient Cs2CO3‐catalyzedoxidativecoupling of thiols with phosphonates and arenes that uses molecular oxygen as the oxidant is described. These reactions provide not only a novel alkali metal salt catalyzed aerobic oxidation, but also an efficient approach to thiophosphates and sulfenylarenes, which are ubiquitously found in pharmaceuticals and pesticides. The reaction proceeds under simple and

Metal Free Mono- and 2,3-Bis-sulfenylation of Indoles in Water with Sodium Sulfinates as a Sulfur Source
An iodine‐PPh3 mediated sulfenylation of indoles in water with stable and odorless sodiumsulfinates as the sulfur source is described. The reaction could afford monosulfenylated indoles in moderate to excellent yields under metal free conditions. Moreover, double C—H sulfenylation of indoles at 2‐ and 3‐positions has also been achieved by using excess sodiumsulfinates under the optimized reaction

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.
