S-Acetylation of Thiols Mediated by Triflic Acid: A Novel Route to Thioesters

, p. 489 - 493 (2018/04/27)
This paper demonstrates an efficient, mild, and chemoselective synthesis of various thioesters via a HOTf-catalyzed S-acetylation of aromatic and aliphatic thiols using isopropenyl acetate as a cheap and convenient acetylating agent. During our tests, we also investigated the differences between the activities of metal triflates and triflic acid as catalysts in the acetylation of thiols. Finally, the potential of our concept has been increased by the implementation of Nafion as a heterogeneous catalyst for S-acetylation of thiols.
Modified Molybdenum Carbonyl Species; Excellent Reagents for the Desulphurization of Thiols

Thiols can be desulfurized in good yields by treatment with molybdenum hexacarbonyl either in acetic acid or when pre-adsorbed on to silica.
