Abstract

The behavior of thioaldehydes, thioketones, thiono esterts (O-alkyl thioates) and dithio esters (S-alkyl dithioates) has been reviewed. Specific properties of thiocarbonyl compounds have been shown: Michael addition reaction of enethiolates, thiophilic addition of nucleophiles, easy thio-Claisen rearrangement, [4+2] cycloaddition with dienes and rich dipolarophile chemistry. 1.
