Aromatic Thiols and Their Derivatives

​Ismayil A. Aliyev is an organic chemist, a professor, D.Sc. (chemistry), the head of health and safety of life performance department and a professor of the department of organic chemistry Baku State University (Azerbaijan). His main research interests relate to chemistry and physical chemistry of aromatic sulfur derivatives, including new synthesis of pyrroles containing arylthio groups using acetylene, vinyl halides and 1, 2-dibromoalkanes in superbasic media. Also, he is engaged in the studies of relationship between physical-chemical properties of organosulfur compounds and their reactivity. He is the author of more than 270 publications, including 1 monograph, 5 textbooks, 3 manuals, 10 patents and 2 authors’ certificates.Boris A. Trofimov is an organic chemist, a full member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, a professor, D.Sc.
