Abstract

A new method was developed for the electrophilic introduction of methylthio group into a series of aromatic heterocyclic compounds through the hetaryl(dimethyl)sulfonium salts formed in the course of the reaction of the respective heterocycles with the complex of dimethyl sulfide and trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride. By demethylation with triethylamine it was possible to obtain the methylthio-substituted heterocycles.
