title = "Electrochemical Synthesis of Thienoacene Derivatives: Transition-Metal-Free Dehydrogenative C−S Coupling Promoted by a Halogen Mediator",
abstract = "The first electrochemical dehydrogenative C−S bond formation leading to thienoacene derivatives is described. Several thienoacene derivatives were synthesized by dehydrogenative C−H/S−H coupling. The addition of nBu4NBr, which catalytically promoted the reaction as a halogen mediator, was essential.",
