Potassium fluoride on alumina: A convenient synthesis of O-alkyl methyldithiocarbonates. Pyrolysis of O-benzyl-S-methyldithiocarbonates

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919608004557

Xanthates were easily prepared by adsorption of alcohol on KF-Al₂O₃ followed by treatment of carbon disulfide and iodomethane at room temperature. Pyrolysis of benzyl xanthate affords to a complex mixture of products. A radical process was proposed to explain the nature of products obtained.
