47. In our experiment, it was found that the secondary aromatic amines were inert to this C-S bond formation reaction, probably due to their weaker nucleophilicity. For primary aliphatic amines, the resulting products were not the desired C-S bond formation products. Instead, thioureas were obtained based on the spectra data.
