Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic chemical synthesis technology, and in particular to an O,O′-monothiocarbonate compound and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] O,O′-monothiocarbonates, characterized by their -OC(=S)O- structural units, are a class of versatile compounds with important applications in organic synthesis and materials science. Their unique reactivity stems from the varying electrophilicity of carbon atoms and the different nucleophilicity and leaving group capabilities of sulfur atoms. This unique property makes them valuable intermediates for constructing various sulfur-containing molecules (including thioethers, thioesters, and cyclic thiocarbonates). Furthermore, due to the strong coordination ability of sulfur atoms with various metal ions, they have significant applications in constructing organometallic complexes.

[0003] Currently, the common methods for synthesizing O,O′-monothiocarbonates include: 1. reacting phenolic monomers with phosgene in an alkaline solution; 2. reacting thioacyl chlorides with bisphenol monomers; 3. reacting thiocarbonyl imidazoles with bisphenols, etc. These methods suffer from drawbacks such as the high toxicity of the organic reagents used, difficulty in storage, and high cost. Elemental sulfur, as a byproduct of the petrochemical industry, has advantages such as abundant reserves, low price, easy storage, and non-corrosiveness. Using it directly as the sulfur source for synthesizing O,O′-monothiocarbonates not only avoids the use of highly toxic phosgene but also improves the utilization rate of elemental sulfur. Therefore, developing simple and efficient organic reactions for synthesizing O,O′-monothiocarbonates based on elemental sulfur, using non-toxic or low-toxic reagents, has significant scientific and industrial value.
