A nickel-catalyzed reductive cross coupling between organic iodides and thiosulfonates and a selenosulfonate under mild conditions is disclosed. This practical method provides a facile access to a series of unsymmetrical thioethers with low catalyst loading, good functional group tolerance, and exce...
