The aim of this review is to present reactions of carbon disulfide with N-nucleophiles which form nitrogen-carbon bonds. Compounds with an amino or imino group react, in the presence of a base, with carbon disulfide to give dithiocarbamates. They can be converted to esters on treatment with an alkylation reagent. Acidification affords dithiocarbamic acids. Dithiocarbazates are formed on treatment of hydrazines with carbon disulfide. A lot of dithiocarboxylation products are valuable building blocks for heterocycles.
