ChemInform Abstract: Reductive Thiolation of Aromatic Ketones and Benzaldehyde with Sulfur, Carbon Monoxide and Water Leading to Thiols.
First published: January 26, 1988
Abstract
Reductive sulfurization of the aromatic carbonyl compounds (I) to give the corresponding thiols (II) is achieved by treatment with sulfur, carbon monoxide, and water in the presence of DBU.
ChemInform Abstract
Reductive sulfurization of the aromatic carbonyl compounds (I) to give the corresponding thiols (II) is achieved by treatment with sulfur, carbon monoxide, and water in the presence of DBU. The use of other bases such as Et3N results in lower yields. (Mechanism).
