Direct Synthesis of Isothiocyanates from Isonitriles by Molybdenum-Catalyzed Sulfur Transfer with Elemental Sulfur
摘要:
The direct molybdenum-catalyzed sulfuration of a variety of isonitriles with elemental sulfur or propene sulfide as sulfur donors affords the corresponding isothiocyanates in good yields and under mild reaction conditions. A catalytic cycle is suggested, in which the molybdenum oxo disulfur complex operates as the active sulfur-transferring species. A novel adduct between the isonitrile and the molybdenum complex has been characterized by X-ray analysis and its association constant determined by UV-vis spectroscopy, but this adduct appears not to be involved in the sulfur-transfer process.

A class of 2-isoxazolines bearing an aryl substituent at the 3-position and a substituted methyl or ethyl group at the 5-position effectively control microorganisms, particularly fungal foliar phytopathogens.

Readily available N-monosubstituted trifluoroacetamides are transformed into isothiocyanates in good yield by reaction, at room temperature, with carbon disulfide in acetonitrile in the presence of anhydrous sodium hydroxide/potassium carbonate basic mixture.
The tandem and stepwise Staudinger/aza-Wittig reactions of several azides were examined in detail. The tandemreaction method (Method I) exhibited superior results in the yield of the corresponding isothiocyanates bearing an electron-withdrawing group than the conventional stepwise method (Method II) which involves the sequential treatment of the azides with triphenylphosphine and then carbondisulfide
A rapid and efficient, acid-promoted strategy to access allylic thiocyanates using allylic alcohols as substrates and easily-available NH4SCN as the thiocyanate source is presented under metal- and oxidant-free conditions. Various tertiary and secondary allylic alcohols are tolerated in this mild reaction system.
