Abstract
Tosyl cyanide is a commonly used reagent for cyanation and sulfonylation in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry. The photocatalytic transformations of tosyl cyanide are generally conducted under mild conditions. This minireview summarizes the recent progress of radical-involved transformations of tosyl cyanide via photo-induced cyanation or sulfonylcyanation.

Abstract
Herein, we provide a novel method for the synthesis of 1,3-dibenzenesulfonylpolysulfane (DBSPS), which further reacts with boronic acids to afford thiosulfonates. Commercially available boron compounds greatly expanded the range of thiosulfonates. Experimental and theoretical mechanistic investigations suggested that DBSPS could provide both thiosulfone fragments and dithiosulfone fragments, but the generated aryl dithiosulfonates were unstable and decomposed into thiosulfonates.
