Abstract: An unprecedented metal-, halogen- and solvent-free, MSAA-promoted S-carbonylation of thiols with feedstock acids has been developed. This new transformation provides an efficient and atom-economic strategy for the synthesis of thioesters in a single operation from readily available and inexpensive starting materials. The reaction avoids the use of expensive and hazardous coupling reagents, bases and generates water as the only by-product, thus making this chemical synthetic process more viable, environment-friendly and contributing towards sustainable chemistry.

Direct thioesterification of carboxylic acids with thiols using nontoxic activation agents is highly desirable. Herein, an efficient and practical protocol using safe and inexpensive industrial waste polymethylhydrosiloxane as the activation agent and K3PO4 with 18-crown-6 as a catalyst is described. Various functional groups on carboxylic acid and thiol substituents can be tolerated by the present system to afford thioesters in yields of 19-100%.
Oxalic Acid Monothioester for Palladium-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Thiocarbonylation and Hydrothiocarbonylation

Oxalic acid monothioester (OAM), an easily accessible and storable reagent, was reported herein as a thioester synthetic equivalent for palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative thiocarbonylation of organohalides and hydrothiocarbonylation of unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds at room temperature with high chemo- and regioselectivity. The reaction is applicable to the synthesis of cysteine-derived thioesters, thus allowing chemical modification of cysteine-containing peptides. Decarboxylation of OAM proceeds through oxidative addition of Pd(0) to the acyl-S bond, which accounts for the very mild reaction conditions.
Harnessing the catalytic behaviour of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP): An expeditious synthesis of thioesters

A novel, efficient, metal-, base- and acid-free straightforward protocol has been developed for the construction of useful thioesters. The immense catalytic potential of HFIP for promoting the thiocarbonylation of acyl halides and thiols is disclosed. HFIP was recovered with ease and reused for further reactions without any loss of reactivity. Both aryl and alkyl thiols bearing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups as well as aryl- and alkyl acyl halides worked well in this reaction. Inexpensive precursors, short reaction time, obviating workup, high atom economy, and gram-scale preparation are the significant features of the developed eco-friendly route for S-carbonylation of thiols.

Kinetic studies on the nucleophilic substitution reaction of S-phenyl thiobenzoates with anilines have been carried out at 55.0 deg C.Effects of substituents in the nucleophile(X), substrate(Y) and leaving groups(Z) are analyzed in terms of Hammett's and Broensted's coefficients, ρi and βi and cross-interaction constants ρij and βij where i and j denote X, Y or Z.The sign of ρXZ (or βXZ) is positive, and accordingly, the transition state(TS) variations with the substituents are consistent with those predicted by the potential energy surface diagram; the magnitude of ρx(βx) and ρxy decreases with a better leaving group, and that of ρz and βz decreases with a stronger nucleophile leading to an earlier TS, in agreement with a normal Hammond effect.The larger magnitudes of ρXY, ρYZ and βXZ suggest that the reaction proceeds by an associative SN2 mechanism.A greater kH/kD value (1.0) is observed with deuterated aniline nucleophiles for a stronger nucleophile and a better leaving group, supporting the earlier TS proposed on the basis of the cross-interaction constants.The inverse secondary kinetic isotope effects obtained preclude involvement of any four-center TS or base catalysis by aniline.
