A facile and efficient synthesis of isothiocyanates involves the reaction of
amines with phenyl chlorothionoformate in the presence of solid sodium hydroxide
by either a one-pot process or a two-step approach. The one-pot process is
useful for preparing alkyl and electron-rich aryl isothiocyanates, whereas the
two-step approach is more versatile.
