Abstract

A novel carbon tetrabromide promoted one-pot reaction of amines and carbon disulfide under mild conditions has been developed, which provides a straightforward and efficient access to thioureas and thiuram disufides, depending on the nature of the amines employed. The promotion effect is explained as the transient formation of a sulfenyl bromide intermediate from dithiocarbamate and carbon tetrabromide during the reaction.
