✦ Synopsis


a-Chloroalkyl phenyl sulfides 1 readily insert zinc in THF at 25 Oc (05-2 h), affording surfur stabilized organozinc derivatives of type 2. The presence of a functional group such as an ester or a cyan0 group is tolerated in these organometallics. After a transmelallation to the corresponding copper reagent 3, they react with a wide range of electrophiles. Zinc and copper organometallics bearing a thiophenyl or a phenylsulfinyl group at the yposition have also been prepared showing the generality of our approach.
