A series of C,N,C-chelated organoantimony and -bismuth thioates were prepared as potential antifungal agents against C. albicans through an additive-free synthesis starting from thiols or a DTT-mediated cross-coupling with disulfides.
This review highlights the advancement in the synthesis and applications of cyclic diaryliodonium salts as well as provides new areas for future research in this subject.
The photochemical halogen-bonding assisted alkenylation and dienylation of phosphoro(di)thioate diesters under batch and continuous flow is disclosed. Mechanistic studies support the formation of the halogen-bonding complex and the radical pathway.
A method for inducing direct selenothiocyanation from both terminal and internal alkynes through a radical process is proposed under metal-free conditions.
We have devised an efficient electrochemical method for the construction of asymmetric disulfide bonds avoiding the use of metals and oxidants and leading to the synthesis of unsymmetric thiosulfonates.
