Abstract

Herein, we report an operationally simple, environmentally benign and scalable approach towards the synthesis of S-benzyl/alkyl dithiocarbamates via a hydrogen borrowing reaction between alcohols and dithiocarbamate anions catalyzed using a hydroxyapatite-supported copper nano-catalyst. This strategy has a broad substrate scope and offers high yields of products using inexpensive and readily available alcohols as starting materials. The catalyst was prepared by easy and straightforward methods and analyzed by several analytical techniques, e.g., FESEM, HR-TEM, BET, XRD, EDS, and XPS, demonstrating the anchoring of Cu nanoparticles on hydroxyapatite in the zero oxidation state.
