Synthesis of organic sulfides from thiols using montmorillonite-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane as a new catalyst

Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/cc9960000369

A new basic clay, synthesised by introducing 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane into montmorillonite, catalyses the reaction between benzyl chloride and thiols to afford high yields of the corresponding sulfides. ? To whom correspondence should be addressed.
