Oxyphosphorodithiolation\nof Vinyl Azides with P<sub>4</sub>S<sub>10</sub> and Alcohols Leading\nto β‑Keto\nPhosphorodithioates

A simple strategy for the synthesis of β-keto phosphorodithioates\nhas been developed through the direct oxyphosphorodithiolation of\nvinyl azides with P<sub>4</sub>S<sub>10</sub> and alcohols in the\npresence of water. The reaction is conducted at room temperature to\nprovide a number of β-keto phosphorodithioates in moderate to\ngood yields. This methodology has the advantages of simple operation,\nmild condition, broad substrate scope, and favorable group compatibility.
