Abstract
A straightforward preparation of 1-[(5,5-dimethyl-2-thioxo-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinan-2-yl)trisulfanyl]dodecane from readily available substrates, followed by reaction with aliphatic and aromatic thiols enables the synthesis of unsymmetrical trisulfides under mild conditions in very good yields.
