The electrophilic reaction of sulfur dichloride with diphenyl sulfide proceeds efficiently at room temperature to yield oligo(phenylene sulfide) in the presence of a catalytic amount of Fe powder. Sulfur dichloride shows higher reactivity than sulfur monochloride. The reaction is promoted through the activation of sulfur dichloride by Fe powder. The polymeric product contains a linear structure linked by disulfide and sulfide bonds.
