A novel electrophilic thiocyanating reagent, N -thiocyanato-dibenzenesulfonimide, was prepared and exhibited enhanced electrophilicity with a wide scope of substrates. Thus, it reacted with activated aromatics such as phenols, indoles, anilines and anisoles without a catalyst giving the correspondin...
