Abstract
The reaction of sulfur dioxide (SO 2) with 1-propanethiol (NPT), 2-propanethiol (IPT), or 2- methyl-2-propanethiol (TBT) catalyzed by boron trifluoride ethrate (BF 3 OEt 2) was investigated. The ratios of dialkyl trisulfide to dialkyl disulfide obtained (RSSSR/RSSR) at an early stage of the reaction were larger than 1 for the reaction of TBT and less than 1 for the reaction of NPT or IPT. The reaction of dithiosulfites with BF 3 OEt 2 in the presence or ...
