Abstract

A series of new N-alkyl-S, S-dimethyliminosulfonium and N-aralkyl-S, S- dimethyliminosulfonium salts (chlorides and picrates) has been prepared and characterized from alkyl-and aralkylamines, respectively, and dimethyl sulfide “activated” by N- chlorosuccinimide or N-chlorobenzotriazole. N-Chlorosuccinimide and N- chlorobenzotriazole have also been shown to be useful thioether “activators” for the ...
