Abstract

We became interested in the synthesis of a variety of alkylated derivatives of this synthon in order to study their physico-chemical and aggregation properties. We have recently reported the synthesis of several alkyl derivatives of nitroethylenedithiolate from the reaction of the dipotassium salt of 2-nitro-1,1-ethylenedithiol 1 with a series of simple alkyl halides in 50% aqueous methanol medium. 5 In this communication we report that, when the same reaction was conducted ...
