This review highlights the achievements in the synthesis of organic thiocyanates (OTCs)
over the past five years (late 2015 to mid-2019) and is intended as a follow-up on our tutorial …

Lewis base/Brønsted acid cocatalysis for electrophilic thiocyanation of olefins is reported.
Using a combination of triphenylphosphine selenide and diphenyl phosphate as a catalyst …

Metal‐free approach for direct C–H thiolation and thiocyanation of N‐substituted
pyrazolones with disulfides and thiocyanate salts, respectively, are developed. These …

A new source of “CN” employing formamide and cyanuric chloride is introduced for the
cyanation reactions. The treatment of formamide and 2, 4, 6‐trichloro‐1, 3, 5‐triazine (TCT; …

A Selectfluor-initiated cyanation of disulfides to thiocyanates has been developed. In this
process, Selectfluor was employed as the oxidant and trimethylsilyl cyanide was used as the …

A novel SO 2 F 2-promoted thiocyanation method for the one-step synthesis of thiocyanates
through C–O bond cleavage of readily available alcohols with ammonium thiocyanate as the …

Organothiocyanate and organoselenocyanate compounds are of paramount importance in
organic chemistry as they are key intermediates to access sulfur-and selenium-containing …
