Synthesis of S-alkyl and S-aryl thiocarbamates, one-pot two-step general synthesis

Abstract

A method for preparing S-alkyl and S-aryl thiocarbamates comprising reacting a precursor thiol reagent with trichloroacetyl chloride to produce an S-alkyl and S-aryl trichloroacetyl thioester intermediate, which is reacted with an amine to yield the corresponding thiocarbamate product. Also disclosed is the method for preparing S-alkyl and S-aryl thiocarbamates comprising reacting an amine with trichloroacetyl chloride to produce a trichloroacetamide intermediate, which is then reacted with the precursor thiol to yield the corresponding thiocarbamate product.
