Abstract

Several sulfenyl thiocarbonates (RSSC02CHJ have been decomposed with triphenylphosphine. In the case of R= alkyl, desulfurization takes place to give the S-alkyl thiocarbonate while in the case of R= aryl, a phosphonium salt is likely formed which on chromatographic workup on silica gel is converted to a thiol and triphenylphosphine oxide and sulfide. A mechanistic interpretation is offered.
