The present process enables the use of two RS in RSSR and shows broad functional group tolerance, which represents an atom-economical and practical procedure for the synthesis of thiosulfonates. A plausible mechanism for the role of NBS as a promoter for the cleavage of disulfides generating N-(organothio)succinimide that then undergos facile sulenylation with sulfinates is proposed.展开更多

The reaction was performed smoothly and cleanly to give 2-oxazolines in good to excellent yields(up to 95%) in acetone at room temperature. Thirteen examples were investigated and the results indicated that a large range of a-cyanocinnamate derivatives could be suitable for this method. Based on the outcomes of experiment, a possible consecutive nucleophilic addition- cyclization pathway was proposed.展开更多
