Phosphorus pentasulfide mediated conversion of organic thiocyanates to thiols.


ABSTRACT: In this paper we report an efficient and mild procedure for the conversion of organic thiocyanates to thiols in the presence of phosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5) in refluxing toluene. The method avoids the use of expensive and hazardous transition metals and harsh reducing agents, as required by reported methods, and provides an attractive alternative to the existing methods for the conversion of organic thiocyanates to thiols.
