In recent years, the direct introduction of sulfonyl and sulfenyl groups into unsaturated substrates by using thiosulfonates as unique dual functional reagents has inarguably provided chemists a new platform for the diverse synthesis of important S-containing derivatives. These 1,n-thiosulfonylation reactions usually feature simple procedures, 100% atom economy, and high regioselectivity. This review focuses on the recent advancements in the transformations of thiosulfonates through 1,n-thiosulfonylation involving the formation of two distinct C-S bonds under transition-metal-catalyzed or metal-free conditions, where thiosulfonates act as both a sulfonyl and a sulfenyl component.
