Copper-Mediated Coupling of Boronic Acids, Amines, and Carbon Disulfide: An Approach to Organic Dithiocarbamates

Abstract

An efficient copper-mediated three-component coupling reaction of boronic acids, amines, and carbon disulfide has been developed, which provides a new approach to a wide range of functionalized dithiocarbamates in good to excellent yields. The present methodology has many advantages, such as mild reaction conditions, easily available substrates, wide substrate scope, and high functional-group tolerance.
