Abstract Phosphomolybdic acid (H3PMo12O40) is reported as a green low-cost catalyst for the synthesis of symmetrical / unsymmetrical thiosulfonates via the disproportionate coupling reaction of sulfonyl hydrazide. The attributes of this reported catalytic system include low catalyst loadings (1 mol%), efficient turnover, and high yields (up to 94%). Additionally, this reaction mechanism involves the formation of a thiyl radical and sulfonyl radical via sulfinyl radical disproportionation.
