The invention discloses a preparation method of
thioester and epithioester compounds, and belongs to the technical field, the preparation method of the
thioester compounds comprises the following steps: in an
organic solvent, under the participation of alkali, reacting an alpha-carbonyl alkenyl ester compound with a
thiol or
thiophenol compound at 0-50 DEG C to obtain the
thioester compounds; the preparation method of the
episulfide compound comprises the following steps: reacting a sulfydryl-containing
carboxylic acid compound with an
allene ketone compound or an
alkyne amide compound in
dichloroethane at 0-70 DEG C to obtain a sulfydryl-containing alkenyl ester compound; then, in an
organic solvent, the alkenyl ester compound containing sulfydryl reacts at the temperature of 0-50 DEG C under the participation of alkali and / or an additive, and the
episulfide compound is obtained; the method for preparing thioester and epithioester provided by the invention has the advantages of low cost, simple operation, mild
reaction conditions, wide substrate adaptability, no
racemization of products and the like.
