Synthesis of thiolactones using benzyltriethylammonium tetrathiomolybdate as sulfur transfer reagent
摘要:
An interesting sulfur transfer reaction mediated by benzyltriethylammonium tetrathiomolybdate [(PhCH2NEt3)(2)MoS4] converts omega-halo acid chlorides to the corresponding thiolactones in moderate to good yields in one step. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
