Bio-based green solvent mediated disulfide synthesis via thiol couplings free of catalyst and additive

Abstract

The bio-based green solvent ethyl lactate has been found to be a particularly efficient medium for oxidative coupling reactions of thiols yielding a broad array of disulfides. As a green solvent, ethyl lactate has shown an interesting promotion effect on the transformation by mediating corresponding reactions with high efficiency without using any catalyst or additive.
