Abstract
Nucleophilic substitution of 1,2,3-triarylbenzo[b]thiophenium salts wi th halide anions (Cl- and Br-) has been found to yield 2,3-diarylbenzo [b] thiophenes, halobenzenes and -diaryl-1-halo-2-[2-(phenylsulfanyl)p henyl]ethenes and especially the reaction with iodide anion gives only 2,3-diarylbenzo[b]thiophenes and iodobenzene, indicating that halide anions behave quite differently from the reaction with alkoxide anions reported previously.
