Abstract
A strategy for Ni-catalyzed decarbonylation and rearrangement of epoxy thioester is described. Mono- and double-decarbonylations were selectively achieved by changing catalytic condition, leading to the production of benzyl-thioesters and benzyl-thioethers in moderate to excellent yields. The new protocol enables a facile route for C–S bond formation in a straightforward fashion.
