experimental part, p. 1171 - 1174 (2012/09/25)
Multicomponent reactions with ultrasonic activation have been used as a simple, rapid, atom economic, and green method for the synthesis of dithiocarbamate derivatives in water. The one-pot, three-component condensation of primary and secondary amines with carbon disulfide and unsaturated carbonyl compounds or alkyl halides under ultrasonic irradiation was developed as a green and fast protocol for the rapid high-yielding preparation of dithio-carbamates in water.

The zinc-ejecting aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) inhibitory drug disulfiram (DSF) was found to be a breast cancer-associated protein 2 (BCA2) inhibitor with potent antitumor activity. We herein describe our work in the synthesis and evaluation of new series of zinc-affinic molecules to explore the structural requirements for selective BCA2-inhibitory antitumor activity. An N(C - S)S - S motif was found to be required, based on selective activity in BCA2-expressing breast cancer cell lines and against recombinant BCA2 protein. Notably, the DSF analogs (3a and 3c) and dithio(peroxo)thioate compounds (5d and 5f) were found to have potent activity (submicromolar IC50) in BCA2 positive MCF-7 and T47D cells but were inactive (IC50 > 10 μM) in BCA2 negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells and the normal breast epithelial cell line MCF10A. Testing in the isogenic BCA2 +ve MDA-MB-231/ER cell line restored antitumor activity for compounds that were inactive in the BCA2 -ve MDA-MB-231 cell line. In contrast, structurally related dithiocarbamates and benzisothiazolones (lacking the disulfide bond) were all inactive. Compounds 5d and 5f were additionally found to lack ALDH-inhibitory activity, suggestive of selective E3 ligase-inhibitory activity and worthy of further development.
Straightforward and highly efficient catalyst-free one-pot synthesis of dithiocarbamates under solvent-free conditions

A highly efficient and simple synthesis of dithiocarbamates is possible based on the one-pot reaction of amines, CS2, and alkyl halides without using a catalyst under solvent-free conditions. The mild reaction conditions, high yields, and broad scope of the reaction illustrate the good synthetic utility of this method. The reaction is a highly atom-economic process for production of S-alkyl thiocarbamates and successfully can be used in high quantities in the pharmaceutical or agrochemical industries.
Benzotriazole-assisted thioacylation
Katritzky, Alan R.,Witek, Rachel M.,Rodriguez-Garcia, Valerie,Mohapatra, Prabhu P.,Rogers, James W.,Cusido, Janet,Abdel-Fattah, Ashraf A. A.,Steel, Peter J.

Benzotriazole reagents for thioacylation (RCSBt), thiocarbamoylation (RR'NCSBt), aryl/alkoxy-thioacylation (ROCSBt), and aryl/alkylthiothioacylation (RSCSBt) are synthesized, and their utility is assessed by syntheses of representative heteroaryl thioureas 3a-g, thioamides 15a-s, thionoesters 16a-h, thiocarbamates 17a-e, dithiocarbamates 18a-d, thiocarbonates 19a-c, and dithiocarbonates 20a-c.
