Abstract
A new synthesis of unsymmetrical disulfides is described. The reaction of a thiol R1SH with 1-chlorobenzotriazole (BtCl) at -78 degrees C in DCM affords a high-yielding conversion to R1SBt without appreciable formation of the symmetrical disulfide R1SSR1. R1SBt is then reacted with R2SH to form the unsymmetrical disulfide in a one-pot sequence with green character that avoids the use of toxic and harsh oxidizing agents. The methodology has been developed for synthesis of various types of disulfides.Entities:
