Abstract

A simple and straightforward route for the synthesis of thioethers, thioesters, vinyl thioethers and thio-Michael adducts has been demonstrated using silica nanoparticles (NPs) as a reusable catalyst via the 1,2-addition of thiols to alkenes, alkynes and alkyl/acyl halides, and the 1,4-addition of thiols to conjugated alkenes at room temperature.
