A DTBP-promoted C-H thiolation of aldehydes with disulfides under metal-free and solvent-free conditions is described. The system shows good functional group tolerance to afford thioesters in moderate to excellent yields. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A very simple N-chlorosuccinimide-promoted synthesis of thiophosphates through the coupling of thiols and phosphonates is reported. Notably, the reactions were carried out in the absence of a base. Functional groups including fluoro, bromo and trifluoromethyl are all tolerated by the reaction conditions employed. Both aryl and alkyl thiols are coupled smoothly with a broad spectrum of phosphonates to afford the corresponding thiophosphates in good to excellent yields. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
