%X Treatment of thiocarbonates (OCSO) with methyl iodidelpropylene oxide at 80º can lead smoothly to the carbonate. In some cases, a competing process is the formation of iodo  thiocarbonates ( OCOSMe ), and an explanation is provided for the product distributions observed. The corresponding reactions with methyl bromide and methyl chloride (as methyl chloroformate ) are much less efficient.
