Cationic nanogels of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), including NIPAM-based cationic fluorescent nanogel thermometers, were synthesized with a cationic radical initiator previously developed in our laboratory. These cationic nanogels were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), zeta potential measurements

A practical and promising protocol was developed for S-arylations of various thiols with different substituted aryl halides. The reactions were readily facilitated to afford desired thioethers under mild conditions in good to excellent yields. The versatility, air-stability, operational simplicity of
