- Abstract
A catalyst-free, direct, high regio-, and chemo-selective method is reported for the facile conversion of a wide variety of epoxides to their corresponding 2-thiocyanatoalkyl alkanoates, which contain two important functional groups (ester and thiocyanate), using a mixture of tetrabutylammonium rhodanide ((n-Bu)4NSCN) and an aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic anhydride under neutral and solvent-free conditions. On a mis au point une méthode hautement régio- et chimio-sélective directe et n’impliquant aucun catalyseur pour la transformation facile d’une grande variété d’époxydes en alcanoates de 2-thiocyanatoalkyles correspondants qui contiennent deux groupes fonctionnels importants (ester et thiocyanate); elle comporte l’utilisation d’une mélange de rhodanide de tétrabutylammonium (n-Bu)4NSCN et l’anhydride d’un acide carboxylique aliphatique ou aromatique, dans des conditions neutres et sans solvant.
