title: Highly regio- and stereoselective hydrothiolation of acetylenes with thiols catalyzed by a well-defined supported Rh complex.
abstract: Highly regio- and stereoselective hydrothiolation of a wide range of alkynes with various thiols was demonstrated in the presence of a well-defined Rh complex supported on mesoporous SBA-15 silica. The catalyst was easily recovered and reused several times without significant loss of activity or selectivity.
