Abstract

A highly efficient three-component coupling reaction between thioformamides and organolithium and Grignard reagents was developed. The generality of the process has been demonstrated by using various combinations of reactants and reagents. Information about the mechanism of the reaction has come from 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic detection of the key intermediate. The LiS group in the intermediates generated by ...
