Abstract
A previous report has established the intermediacy of a sulfide-sulfon ate ester in the one-pot conversion of an aryl mercaptan and a sulfona te ester into the corresponding trithioorthoformate. This report descr ibes evidence for the sequential intermediacy of a bissulfide-sulfonat e ester and a dithiosulfene in the conversion of the sulfide-sulfonate ester into the trithioorthoformate. A new sulfonate ester is shown to give the highest yield of trithioorthoformate.
