General description

Bis(phenylthio)methane (PhSCH2SPh) is a dithioether ligand. It forms coordination complex with silver(I) salts. It participates in the synthesis of (-)-rasfonin.

Application

Bis(phenylthio)methane (PhSCH2SPh) may be used in the synthesis of the following:
  • dihydroxy thioethers
  • [Cu4I4{μ-PhS2CH2SPh}2]n
  • [(η5-C5Me5)MCl21-(PhS)2CH2)] (M=Rh, Ir ; C5Me5= pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)
  • 6-deoxy-1,2:3,4-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-galactoheptodialdo-1,5-pyranose diphenyl dithioacetal

Other Notes

Acyl anion equivalent with some advantages over 1,3-dithiane; for the preparation of vinyl sulfides.
