A dithioxo-bishydroxylaminomolybdenum complex as sulfur and nitrogen transfer reagent. Synthesis of thioureas from isonitriles

Cis-dithioxo-bis(( N,N-diethyl)hydroxylamido(1-)- O,N)molydenum(VI) reacts with isonitriles to give the corresponding N,N-diethylthioureas. A mechanism is proposed for this S,N-transfer reaction. A molybdenum complex is used to transfer both S and N atoms to isonitriles. [Display omitted]
