Triton-B Catalyzed, Green and Efficient Method for the Synthesis of Dithiocarbazates

Abstract

A novel, solvent free and high yielding method was accomplished for one-pot synthesis of dithiocarbazates by the reaction of various alkyl halides (primary, secondary and tertiary) with variety of substituted hydrazines using Triton-B (benzyl-trimethylammonium hydroxide) and carbon di sulphide. This new method of synthesizing dithiocarbazates involves mild conditions, simple procedures and high yields of the products as compared to previously used methods.
