Abstract
A ruthenium-catalyzed S-propargylation of thiols by propargylic carbonates under neutral conditions, in which specific requirements inherent to the different reactivities of aliphatic and aromatic thiols was achieved by tuning both the nature of the ligands and the experimental conditions.
