nickel/photoredox-catalyzed enantioselectivereductive cross-coupling of racemic α-chloro thioesters with aryl iodides has been developed. This strategy avoids the need for organometallic reagents or stoichiometric metal reductants. This reaction could tolerate a wide range of substrate scope with excellent reactivity and high enantioselectivities (up to 91% ee) to access a variety of chiral α-aryl thioesters

A hydrophobic polystyrene-supported sulfonic acid was found to be effective for hydrolysis of thioesters in pure water. It was revealed that the catalyst was much superior to other Bronsted acid catalysts. Transprotection of thiols from thioesters to thioethers has been successfully performed in water using this catalytic system.

The synthesis of sulfines (thione oxides) (2, 10 and 17) derived from three chiraldithioesters (1, 8 and 16) bearing a hydrogen at the α-carbon atom is described. The sulfine bearing an amido group at C-α (2), does not racemize and proved to be stable over a long period. When C-α in the sulfine (10) bears an acetoxy group the optical activity remained unchanged for a period of two months; after longer
