Thiolsulfonates (aryl, primary, or tertiary alkyl) thioalkylated dithiocarbamates (unsubstituted, N-methyl, N, N-dimethyl) to form unsymmetrical thiocarbamoyl disulfides in 48-88% yield; a promising synthesis of an ammonium alkanesulfinate resulted as a side issue. Dipotassium N-(p-toluenesulfony1) dithiocarbamate was dialkylated at sulfur by methyl sulfate but only monothioalkylated by a thiolsulfonate. An imidocarbamoyl disulfide was prepared from a ...
