The nucleophilic addition of widely available and variously functionalized organolithium reagents to isothiocyanates represents a straightforward, high-yielding, one-pot method to access secondary thioamides. The simple reaction conditions required and the broad scope (>50 cases examples) makes it a robust and reliable method to access both simple and complex thioamides, including enantiopure ones. Noxious and unpleasant-smelling sulfurating agents, usually employed in the literature established methods, are avoided during the whole synthetic procedure thus, rendering the protocol highly attractive, also for sustainability aspects.
