Synthesis and application of a fluorous Lawesson's reagent: convenient chromatography-free product purification

Org Lett. 2006 Mar 16;8(6):1093-5. doi: 10.1021/ol0529849.

Abstract

[reaction: see text] A fluorous analogue of Lawesson's reagent for thionation of carbonyl compounds has been developed and its use demonstrated on a series of amides, esters, and ketones. The separation of the Lawesson's reagent-derived byproducts can be achieved by a simple fluorous solid-phase extraction.
