Aminolysis of cyclic thioxocarbonate of (R,R)-di-tert-butyl tartrate: efficient access to thio- and thiolcarbamatesIn this paper thioxocarbonate refers to thiocarbonate-O,O-diesters and the IUPAC name for thiolcarbamate is thiocarbamate.

Aminolysis of cyclic thioxocarbonates derived from (R,R)-dialkyl tartrates with secondary amines is described to afford efficiently thio- and thiolcarbamates in a fast and high yielding reaction. Their stereochemistry and mechanism of formation are discussed.
