Synthetic Types Of Trithiocarbonate

Trithiocarbonate is a light yellow solid and is a chemical raw material.

The activity of the thiocarbonyl group in the trithiocarbonate structure can ensure the rapid progress of the chain transfer reaction, minimize the hindrance, and have little effect on the color of the polymer product, and can also control the preparation of functional polymers with different structures, etc. Therefore, its synthesis is widely concerned by related researchers.

Synthesis of trithiocarbonate The earliest reported synthesis methods of trithiocarbonate mainly include the following: mercaptan and thiophosgene reaction, trithiocarbonate sodium salt and alkyl halide reaction, aryl chloro mercaptan Compounds react with alkyl mercaptan compounds, benzene mercaptans and alkyl halides react with CS2 by means of phase transfer catalysts, etc. These reactions have many shortcomings, such as complex synthesis methods, difficult to obtain raw materials, long reaction times, high temperature requirements, large amounts of toxic or foul-smelling reagents, low product yields, and formation of by-products with unknown structures. (Such as sulfide) and so on. Afterwards, after exploration, more new, milder, and environmentally friendly synthetic methods have been developed one after another.
