Abstract: | Two simple, mild, and efficient procedures for the thiocyanation of N‐heterocycles, substituted anilines (electron‐rich and electron‐deficient), and N‐substituted aromatic amines at room temperature are reported (Table 3). The first uses H2O2 as pollution‐free oxidant and the second H5IO6; both with the reagent potassium thiocyanate in H2O as solvent. These procedures provided the target thiocyanates after a short reaction time in good to excellent yields and high regioselectivity. |
