S-Alkylisothiouronium salt has been found to be a nontoxic, odorless and simply operational alternative of thiol for the thia-Michael addition with electron-deficient olefins. The reactions were carried out under alkaline conditions in water at room temperature within 5-20 minutes to afford the expected products in good to excellent yields.
A facile generation of C–S bonds via one-pot, odourless and efficient thia-Michael addition reactions using alkyl, aryl or allyl halides, thiourea and electron-deficient alkenes in wet polyethylene glycol (PEG 200) under mild reaction conditions
An efficient and odourless synthesis of thia-Michael adducts by the reaction of various organic halides (primary, secondary, tertiary, allylic, and benzylic), structurally diverse electron-deficient alkenes (ketones, esters, and acrylonitrile) and thiourea in the presence of sodium carbonate in wet polyethylene glycol (PEG 200) at 30–35 °C has been developed. This protocol is also a highly useful method
