Abstract

An efficient synthesis of α-sulfenylated carbonyl compounds from propargylic alcohols and aryl thiols under heating conditions is described. The method is characterized by mild conditions, simple operation, metal-free catalysis and good functional group tolerance. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction involves a radical pathway and an isomerization process.
