Abstract

A convenient and efficient procedure for one-pot conversion of alcohols into corresponding alkyl thiocyanates in the presence of cyanuric chloride/dimethylformamide mixed reagent is described. This approach is efficient and selective for primary alcohols especially substituted benzyl alcohols. This method can be easily applied for the facile conversion of primary alcohols into corresponding thiocyanates, but sterically hindered alcohols produced corresponding thiocyanates in very low yields.
