An efficient, one-pot synthesis of S-alkyl thiocarbamates from the corresponding thiols using the Mitsunobu reagent
A novel Mitsunobu-based protocol has been developed for the synthesis of variety of S-alkyl thiocarbamates from the corresponding thiols and amines using gaseous carbon dioxide, in good to excellent yields. This protocol is mild and efficient compared to other reported methods. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
