Herein, we present a nickel-catalyzed C–S cross-coupling between aryl halides and ketene dithioacetals under "base-free" conditions without an exogenous ligand. By employing easily available as sulfide donors, this reaction affords broad range of unsymmetrical alkyl-aryl sulfides using odorous toxic thiols. The newly developed catalytic methodology features excellent functional group tolerance, wide substrate scope, diverse downstream synthesis. Preliminary mechanism investigations reveal that Ni(I)/Ni(III) cycle might be involved.
