P. Kannan et al., SYNTHESIS OF ORGANIC SULFIDES FROM THIOLS USING MONTMORILLONITE-3-AMINOPROPYLTRIETHOXYSILANE AS A NEW CATALYST, Chemical communications, (3), 1996, pp. 369-370
A new basic clay, synthesised by introducing 3-aminopropyltriethoxysil
ane into montmorillonite, catalyses the reaction between benzyl chlori
de and thiols to afford high yields of the corresponding sulfides.
