Room temperature, metal-free, CDI-promoted, ex-situ protocol for S-methyl thioester synthesis

A wide variety of gaseous nucleophiles or reactants such as HNMe₂, MeSH, H₂, CO, CO₂, NH₃ etc. are synthetically accessed using their surrogates^23,24,25. The localized formation and in situ consumption of these gaseous reactants minimizes the…
