AbstractThe methods suitable for the preparation of thiocarbamates are described and illustrated by examples and procedures. They are grouped under the following headings: Addition of Alcohols and Thiols to Isothiocyanates Thioacylation of Amines with chlorothioformates with O,S‐diesters of dithiocarbonic acid with trithiocarbonates Thioacylation of Alcohols, Phenols, and Thiols with thiocarbamoyl chlorides with N,N‐dialkylmercaptochloroformimidium chlorides with N,N′‐thiocarbonyldiimidazole Reaction of Thiocyanates and Cyanates with Hydrogen Sulfide Alkylation of Metal Dithiocarbamates Additions to Thiocyanic Acid
