Process for treating organic polysulfide compounds

A process for reducing the metal corrosiveness of an organic polysulfide comprises contacting the polysulfide with a metal such as a transition metal at an elevated temperature. A process for reducing the concentration of a polysulfide, having four or more sulfur atoms in the polysulfide molecule, in a polysulfide mixture is also provided which comprises contacting the polysulfide mixture with a metal such as a transition metal. Further provided is a process for reducing the concentration of an organic trisulfide in a mixture of an organic disulfide and trisulfide wherein the process comprises contacting the mixture with a metal such as a transitional metal.

NOVEL REACTION FOR THE PREPARATION OF ALKYL VINYL SULFIDES USING METAL COMPLEX CATALYSTS

The feasibility of the one-step synthesis of mixtures of Z- and E-alkenyl alkyl sulfides via the reaction of elemental sulfur with terminal and disubstituted alkynes and alkyl halides has been demonstrated in the presence of low-valent Ni, Co, Pd, and Fe complexes.The effects of structure in the starting alkynes and alkyl halides have been investigated, along with process conditions and their effect on the composition and yields of reaction products.
