Abstract

In the recent three decades, a steadily growing interest in the use of ball milling in organic synthesis has developed. The purpose of this mini-review is to briefly present protocols showing the use of ball milling in the formation and transformation of sulfur-containing functional groups. First, mechanochemical functionalization of sulfur-containing compounds is discussed. The second part devoted to interconversions of sulfur-containing functional groups in mechanochemical conditions summarizes the results on sulfenylation reactions, coupling reactions, redox reactions and condensation reactions. We hope that this review will be a useful addition to the collection of review publications devoted to mechanochemistry and will attract the attention of a wider group of researchers dealing with organosulfur chemistry by drawing attention to the attractive features of mechanochemical protocols.
