On the Mechanism of Reduction of Dithiocarbonates (Xanthates) with Tributylstannane
Barton, Derek H. R.,Crich, David,Loebberding, Antonius,Zard, Samir Z.
, p. 646 - 647 (1985)
Competition experiments with various dithiocarbonates show that the deoxygenation occurs by addition of stannyl radicals to give (2) followed by fragmentation rather than by direct SH2 attack on sulphide sulphur.
On the mechanism of deoxygenation of secondary alcohols by tin hydride reduction of methyl xanthates and other thiocarbonyl derivatives
Barton,Jang,Jaszberenyi Cs.
, p. 3991 - 3994 (2007/10/02)
The room temperature deoxygenation of xanthates and thionocarbonates using (n - Bu) 3Sn-H - Et3B - air has been studied, especially with 119Sn N.M.R. spectroscopy. The orignal conception of tin radical attack on thiocarbonyl is confirmed.
