Aromatic Substitution. 46. Methyl (Ethyl) Thio(Dithio)carboxylation of Aromatics with S-Methyl (S-Ethyl) Thiocarboxonium and Dithiocarboxonium Fluoroantimonates

S-Methyl(S-ethyl)thio(dithio)carboxinium ions were prepared by reacting methyl(ethyl) fluoride-antimony pentafluoride with carbonyl sulfide (carbon disulfide) and studied with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy.The ions were subsequently used in the novel carboxylation reaction of arenes to S-methyl (S-ethyl) thio(dithio)benzoates.The method was also found to be adaptable to the carboxylation of polystyrene to poly(styrenecarboxylic acid) without degradation of the polymer backbone.
