Pyridine hydrochloride-catalyzed thiolation of alkenes: divergent synthesis of allyl and vinyl sulfides

Abstract

A highly efficient and practical protocol for the synthesis of allylic and vinyl sulfides via pyridinium chloride-catalyzed tandem thiolation–elimination of alkenes is described. This tandem protocol offers easy access to both allylic and 1,1-diarylvinyl sulfides under mild conditions with good to excellent yields and excellent functional group tolerance.
