Direct conversion of methylarenes into dithiocarbamates, thioamides and benzyl esters
摘要:
A new strategy for the synthesis of a variety of dithiocarbamates and thioamides has been developed employing inexpensive and readily available methylarenes under metal-free and solvent-free conditions. The approach offers a one-pot procedure and has also been extended to the synthesis of a diverse range of benzyl esters. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
A new decarboxylative strategy has been developed for the synthesis of thioamides via a three-component reaction involving arylacetic or cinnamic acids, amines and elemental sulfur powder, without the need of a transition metal and an external oxidant.
