Solvent-free Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Benzoyldisulfides and Related Novel Biscarbonyldisulfides

Abstract

Under solvent-free conditions, various unsymmetrical benzoyldisulfides and symmetrical novel biscarbonyldisulfides were easily prepared in good yields at room temperature by the mixing of thiosulfonates with thiocarboxylic S-acids in the absence or presence of an amine.

Key words

benzoyldisulfides - thiocarboxylic S-acid - carbonyldisulfides - thiosulfonates - sulfenylation
