We report a fast, efficient, and metal‐free protocol for the synthesis of unsymmetrical biaryl sulfides and aryl–alkyl sulfides (4‐methoxy‐2‐sulfanyl‐phenylcarbamates) under catalytic influence of 2,4‐dinitrobenzoic acid. The reaction proceeded in a regioselective anti ‐Michael addition fashion and all the products were obtained within a very short period of time and in good to excellent yields.
