Alkyl and Aryl Thioester Synthesis via N-Heterocyclic Carbene-Catalyzed α-Thio Aldehyde Rearrangement
{{output}}
We have developed a highly atom economic transformation to provide a thioester. The N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed rearrangement of α-thio aldehydes affords thioesters in good yields. This reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope and is applicable to aldeh... ...
