[reaction: see text] We report a method for the synthesis of vinyl sulfides using the soluble copper(I) catalyst [Cu(phen)(PPh3)2]NO3. The desired vinyl sulfides are obtained in good to excellent yields, with retention of stereochemistry. This protocol tolerates a wide variety of functional groups or substrates, is palladium-free, and does not require the use of expensive or air-sensitive additives.
