Versatile and Large-Scale Synthesis of Functional Dithiocarbamates in Water

Abstract

Structural diversity is possible in direct access to functional dithiocarbamates based on a highly efficient and simple one-pot reaction of CS₂, amines, and alkyl halides in nearly quantitative yields in water.

Keywords:

• Alkyl halides
• amine
• carbon disulfide
• functional dithiocarbamates
• structural diversity
• water
