Lithiation of 1,4-dimethoxybenzene followed by addition of diallyldisulfide would give 2,5-dimethoxyallylthiobenzene (bp 110-125 °C at 0.25 mm/Hg), a starting material for 2C-T-16 or ALEPH-16.
There are also recent posts at the Hive describing the use of aromatic bromides together with a PTC and the corresponding sodium thiolate to give alkyl-phenyl thioethers.
