Abstract
The compound diethyl 2,2'-(thiocarbonyl-bis(sulfanediyl))-diacetate 4 belongs to the trithiocarbonate class containing a trithiocarbonate function group flanked by ethyl acetate. In this procedure, a novel economic synthesis route to obtain compound 4 is described. This compound proved to possess broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity both in vitro and in vivo, and could be used as a lead compound. It is worth mentioning that this compound has been patented [No. US 9,988,348 B1; date of patent: June 5, 2018].
