The present invention relates to a process for synthesizing N,N'-dithiobis(sulfonamides) by reacting a sulfonamide of the formula: ##STR1## with sulfur monochloride and caustic in a mixed organic-aqueous mediua, wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are independently selected from the group consisting of alkyl radicals having from about 1 to about 20 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl radicals having from about 5 to about 20 carbon atoms, phenyl radicals, alkaryl radicals having from about 7 to 20 carbon atoms, and haloaryl radicals having about 6 to about 10 carbon atoms and where R.sup.1 is also selected from radicals having the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are individually selected from said alkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, alkaryl and haloaryl radicals and wherein R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 can be joined together to represent radicals selected from --CH.sub.2 --.sub.n, where n is an integer of 4 to 7 and --CH.sub.2).sub.2 O--CH.sub.2 --.sub.2.
本发明涉及一种合成N,N'-二
硫代双磺酰胺的方法,其通过将式为:##STR1##的磺酰胺与单
氯化硫和碱在混合有机-
水介质中反应而得,其中R.sup.1和R.sup.2分别独立地选自于由具有约1至20个碳原子的烷基基团、具有约5至20个碳原子的环烷基团、苯基、具有约7至20个碳原子的烷基芳基基团和具有约6至10个碳原子的卤代芳基基团组成的基团群,其中R.sup.1还选自于具有式:##STR2##的基团,其中R.sup.3和R.sup.4分别独立地选自于上述烷基、环烷基、苯基、烷基芳基和卤代芳基基团,并且R.sup.3和R.sup.4可以结合在一起表示选自于--CH.sub.2 --.sub.n,其中n为4至7的整数和--CH.sub.2).sub.2 O--CH.sub.2 --.sub.2的基团。
