Abstract

A convenient reaction of thiols with H-dialkyl phosphites in the presence of DMSO as both solvent and oxidant provides various phosphorothioates under transition-metal-free conditions. The reaction proceeds with formation of a disulfide intermediate followed by nucleophilic substitution with the dialkyl phosphite.
