- catalyst is first excited and then transfers one electron to the thiocarbamate moiety to form a thiocarbamate radical anion, with change in oxidation state from III to IV. Next, the sacrificial electron donor Hünig base successfully converts [Ir(IV)] to [Ir(III)], with concurrent formation of an amine
- radical cation. Then, the photogenerated thiocarbamate radical anion forms the alkyl radical by homolytic cleavage of the C–O bond. Next, the H-atom abstraction from iPr2NEt or the from the corresponding radical cation furnishes the desired product. In 2019, Aggarwal and co-workers [44] described a method

- the S,S-dithiocarbamate intermediate from the reaction between thiocyanate and P2S5, its formation was indirectly confirmed by treating benzyl S-thiocarbamate, synthesized separately [22], with P2S5 under similar reaction conditions to give the corresponding thiol (80%). It could be believed that
- thionation of benzyl S-thiocarbamate led to the formation of benzyl S,S-dithiocarbamate which underwent acidic hydrolysis to give the corresponding thiol. Conclusion In summary, the method described in this paper presents an efficient and direct route for the conversion of organic thiocyanates to the

Thiocarbamate 5 was previously mentioned in the literature [21], but due to the fast anomerisation and the relative instability of 1,3-oxazolidin-2-thiones it was never characterized. However, in our hands

The high deuterium content of the product indicated that both enantiomers of 77 must have been deprotonated, and thus
- that the lithio derivative of thiocarbamate 77 must be configurationally labile since the product is non-racemic. In order to induce greater configurational stability, thiocarbamate 79, with increased steric bulk, was prepared. A sample of 79 with an enantiomeric ratio of 73:27 was lithiated with sec
