Abstract The three crystalstructures of β-sulfidocarbonyls 1, 2 and 3 synthesized from the reaction of acryl amide with cystiene, 1,2-dithiol and 1,3-dithiols, respectively, in water catalyzed by borax, have been determined at 273 K. The characteristic features of the structures are self-assembly through intermolecularhydrogenbonding leading to infinite chains of molecules in one direction, in addition

Borax, a naturally occurring material, very efficiently catalyzed the conjugate addition of thiols, dithiols and amines to α,β-unsaturated ketones, nitriles, amides, aldehydes and esters in an aqueousmedium to afford the corresponding Michael adducts in good yields at room temperature. Recycling of the catalyst and scaling up of the reactions are important attributes of this catalysis. The reactions
