The reactions of alkynes with various sulfur-containing compounds including RSSR (disulfides), RSH (thiols), S8 (elemental sulphur), alkynyl thioethers, RSCN, AgSCF3, K2S, Na2S, dithiane, RSCl, NFSI, RNCS, EtOCS2K, thiocarbamate, RSONH2, thiourea, sulfoxide, RSO2N3, CS2, RSO2NH2, RSO2NHNH2, RSO2Cl, RSO2Oar, RSO2SR', DABCO·(SO2)2, Na2S2O5, K2S2O5, RSO2H, RSO2Na and related compounds are discussed. Diverse mechanisms such as radical, electrophilic/nucleophilic addition, rearrangement, C-C bond cleavage, and CuAAC are discussed. The content is organized by substrates and reactivity patterns. We hope it will help in future research in this area.

Abstract
Thiochromenes are versatile sulfur-containing heterocyclic compounds that have received considerable interest in drug discovery because of their ability to act as crucial building blocks for synthesizing bioactive compounds. In particular, these scaffolds have found utility in the design of anticancer, anti-HIV, antioxidant, and antimicrobial agents, among others. Despite their pharmacological potential, the synthesis of these scaffolds is less explored in contrast to their oxygen-containing counterparts. This review classifies the synthetic processes into Michael addition, cycloaddition, ring-opening, coupling, cyclization and Diels-Alder reactions, and others. Reaction mechanisms, circumstances, and important instances are thoroughly discussed in each area. For instance, chiral catalysts and substrates like mercaptobenzaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde are used in Michael addition processes to achieve excellent enantioselectivity. In cycloaddition reactions, readily available substrates such as thioisatins and alkynes achieve regioselectivity and product production. Thiochromenes are also synthesized by ring-opening reactions with epoxides or aziridines. These reactions demonstrate the importance of catalysts and solvents in reaction control, particularly palladium catalysts for aryl halides and thiol coupling processes. Another major class discussed is cyclization reactions with alkynyl thiols and alkynes under regulated temperature and pressure conditions to efficiently synthesize thiochromenes. With the use of chiral substrates and catalysts, Diels-Alder processes increase yields and selectivity and enhance the variety of thiochromene compounds. This review emphasizes the versatility of thiochromenes in drug discovery and consolidates the existing literature on thiochromenes, scrutinizing the gaps and opportunities for synthesizing novel thiochromene-containing lead molecules.

Abstract
Currently, the construction of new carbon-carbon bonds and value-added structures in an atom- and step economical manner has become a continuous pursuit in the synthetic chemistry community. Since the first transition-metal-catalyzed hydroformylation of ethylene was reported by Otto Roelen in the 1930s, impressive progress has been achieved in the carbonylative functionalization of unsaturated C-C bonds. In contrast to alkenes, the carbonylative functionalization of alkynes offers tremendous potential for the construction of multisubstituted carbonyl-containing derivatives because of their two independently addressable π-systems. This review provides a timely and necessary investigation of transition-metal-catalyzed carbonylative mutifunctionalization of alkynes with the exclusion of carbonylative hydrofunctionalizations. Different transition metals including palladium, rhodium, iridium, ruthenium, iron, copper, etc. were applied to the development of novel carbonylative transformation. Various C-C, C-N, C-O, C-S, C-B, C-Si, and carbon-halogen bonds were formed efficiently and give the corresponding tri- or tetrasubstituted α,β-unsaturated ketones, diesters, and heterocycles.

Abstract
A nickel-catalyzed one-pot carbonylation reaction of 2-bromobenzenesulfonyl chlorides with alkynes for the synthesis of thiochromenones has been established. Both terminal and internal alkynes were suitable substrates in this carbonylative transformation, and a broad range of 2-mono- and 2,3-disubstituted thiochromenone products were obtained in moderate to good yields with quite high functional group compatibility. Notably, this procedure presents the first example of nickel-catalyzed carbonylative synthesis of thiochromenones with 2-bromobenzenesulfonyl chlorides as a promising sulfur precursor.

Abstract
A rhodium-catalyzed carbonylative transformation of unactivated phenols to aryl salicylates is described. This protocol is characterized by utilizing 1,3-rhodium migration as the key step to provide direct access to synthesize o-hydroxyaryl esters. Various desired aryl o-hydroxybenzoates were produced in moderate to excellent yields with bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane (DCPE) as the ligand. Interestingly, diphenyl carbonate was formed as the main product when 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (DPPP) was used as the ligand. A plausible reaction mechanism is proposed.

Abstract
Organosulfur compounds are widely used for the manufacture of drugs and materials, and their synthesis in general conventionally employs nucleophilic substitution reactions of thiolate anions formed from thiols and bases. To synthesize advanced functional organosulfur compounds, development of novel synthetic methods is an important task. We have been studying the synthesis of organosulfur compounds by transition-metal catalysis using disulfides and sulfur, which are easier to handle and less odiferous than thiols. In this article, we describe our development that rhodium complexes efficiently catalyze the cleavage of S-S bonds and transfer organothio groups to organic compounds, which provide diverse organosulfur compounds. The synthesis does not require use of bases or organometallic reagents; furthermore, it is reversible, involving chemical equilibria and interconversion reactions.
