General description

Phenyl disulfide is used as a precursor for the synthesis of phenyl selenosulfide (PhS-SePh), which is vital in Li-ion battery production.

Application

Phenyl disulfide is the hydrolysis product of dyfonate( insecticide). Phenyl disulfide (diphenyl disulphide) participates in hydrothiolation of alkynes via amine-mediated single electron transfer mechanism.

Hydrothiolation of alkynes proceeds with diphenyl disulfide and tripropylamine. Amine-mediated single electron transfer to diphenyl disulfide can be proposed for the reaction mechanism. Applications of the method to radical cyclizations of eneyne compounds are also presented.
