Electrochemical approach for upgrading the pollutant CS2: three-component N–H thiocarbamylation of sulfoximines

Abstract

We report an electrochemical approach for upgrading the pollutant CS₂via the thiocarbamylation of bioactive sulfoximines, in which CS₂ and amines are incorporated as a readily available source of dithiocarbamate. This protocol provides an efficient platform to afford diverse N–S bond containing compounds via sequential N–C and N–S bond formation under metal- and oxidant-free conditions.
