Thioamides were efficiently converted to nitriles using the pentavalent triphenylbismuth dichloride in combination with triethylamine. The reaction involved the dehydrosulfurization of primary thioamides to afford substituted aromatic or aliphatic nitriles in good to excellent yields. The process was also successfully extended to the synthesis of cyanamides starting from the corresponding thioureas and of thiocyanates from dithiocarbamates.
One-pot synthesis of (ethoxycarbonyl)difluoromethylthioethers from thiocyanate sodium and ethyl 2-(trimethylsilyl)-2,2-difluoroacetate (TMS-CF2CO2Et)

An efficient one-pot cascade methodology for the synthesis of (ethoxycarbonyl)difluoromethyl thioethers is described. Benzyl, allyl, alkyl halides or diazonium salts as the starting materials together with thiocyanate sodium and TMS-CF2CO2Et in the presence of CsF or NaOAc afford a variety of the fluoroalkylthiolated products in moderate to good yields.

Nucleophilic CF3 has been generated by decarboxylation of potassium trifluoroacetate, arguably the most easy-to-handle, inexpensive, and sustainable source of trifluoromethyl groups. Simple iron(II) chloride catalyzes the decarboxylation as well as a subsequent trifluoromethylation of organothiocyanates, resulting in a straightforward synthesis of trifluoromethyl thioethers. The KCN byproduct is absorbed by iron(II) with formation of nontoxic potassium hexacyanoferrate. An analogous trifluoromethylation of aldehydes with trifluoroacetate underlines the synthetic potential of such iron-catalyzed decarboxylative trifluoromethylations.
