Abstract: | On the Preparation of Di(i-propyl)thiosulfonium Salts [1] The preparation of the mercaptosulfonium salts (i-C3H7)2SSX+SbCl6? (X = H, D) and of the chlorothiosulfonium salts (i-C3H7)2SSCl+MF6? (M = As, Sb) and (i-C3H7)2SSSCl+SbCl6? is reported. They are formed by reaction of chlorinated or protonated (i-C3H7)2S with excess H2S or SCl2 and S2Cl2. The thiosulfonium compounds are characterized by vibrational and NMR spectroscopic methods. |
