Reaction Steps

R. Detty et al. in J. Org. Chem. 1982, 47, 1354-1356 reiterated the above statement about the substantial nonreactivity of lithium sulfide and chlorotrimethylsilane and indicated that commercially available dilithium sulfide and chlorotrimethylsilane, when refluxed for seventy-two hours in tetrahydrofuran, gave only a 45% yield of hexamethyldisilthiane, also called "bis(trimethylsilyl)sulfide.
