Facile preparation of bis(thiocarbonyl)disulfides via elimination

A robust facile synthetic preparation of bis(thiocarbonyl)disulfides is presented. The route follows an elimination mechanism rather than the more common oxidation. Addition of p-tosyl chloride to a thiocarbonyl thiolate results in the elimination of the chloride by the trithiocarbonate anion and subsequent elimination of the tosyl leaving group (by a second thiocarbonyl thiolate). The side products of the reaction are bis(4-methylphenyl)disulfone and tosylate salts/acids.

Redox Reactions in Non-aqueous Media. Determination of Xanthates and Organotrithiocarbonates (Thioxanthates) with Iron(III) in Acetonitrile

The use of iron(III) perchlorate (in acetonitrile) for the visual, potentiometric and spectrophotometric determination of xanthates and organotrithiocarbonates (thioxanthates) in acetonitrile medium is described.The proposed methods are simple, accurate and reliable and show the promise of wide applicability.
