title: Stereoselective hydrothiolation of alkynes catalyzed by cesium base: facile access to (Z)-1-alkenyl sulfides.
abstract: Treatment of alkyne with alkanethiol in the presence of a catalytic amount of cesium carbonate and a radical inhibitor in DMSO provides the corresponding adduct, (Z)-1-alkenyl alkyl sulfide, in good yield with high selectivity.
