Described herein is a direct approach to symmetrical thioethers from either aromatic carboxylic acids or aromatic aldehydes with elemental sulfur (S 8 ) by using a reducing system combined with InI 3 and 1,1,3,3‐tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDS). This sulfidation does not require functionalized sulfur reagents, such as sulfides, disulfides, or metal sulfides, and it simultaneously forms two carbon–sulfur bonds in a single catalytic system.
