Sulfur based organic molecules have always been a prime focus for synthetic chemists, owing to the existence of variable redox states that allows construction of several classes of organosulfur compounds. The prevalent role in biological metabolic processes made them essential for living organisms and their existence spans from marine to terrestrial systems. Sulfide moieties make up a prominent section of building blocks and versatile intermediates, which allows for widespread applications in synthetic chemistry, material science, pharmaceutical industry and biological applications (Scheme 1A). Sulfides and their derivatives can be found as one of the leading series of pharmaceutically active compounds among FDA listed 362 sulfurcontaining drugs. For instance, dapsone, a well-known antibiotic used for the treatment of leprosy, contains a sulfone scaffold. Several nitro and amino-incorporated sulfides are reported as biologically active moieties widely used in the treatment of inflammation, Alzheimer's, HIV, breast cancer, malarial diseases and fungal related conditions. Similarly, vinyl sulfones play a crucial role in several classes of drugs for cancer treatment. Synthetic routes to diaryl sulfides have been investigated thoroughly, and most common routes involve a transition metalcatalyzed cross-coupling between thiophenols or other organosulfur reagents and aryl halides or aryl boronic acids. These methods often require ligands, a number of additives and harsh conditions (Scheme 1B). The use of hazardous thiophenols as the nucleophile has several disadvantages such as its unpleasant smell and oxidative sensitivity, which leads to undesired side products as well as causing irritation to skin and permanent organ damage. Meanwhile, transition-metal free methodologies often require highly functionalized substrates such as aryne precursors, disulfides or employ harsh conditions, delivering a limited scope of sulfide products. Diaryliodonium salts (Ar2IX) are emerging electrophilic aryl sources in organic synthesis due to their high electrophilicity, ease of synthesis and air-moisture stability. These reagents enable usage of user-friendly, odorless, cheap and stable sulfur reagents
