A promising reagent for introducing the methyl thionoester function into organic molecules through a straightforward synthetic sequence based on common magnesium organics is proposed. A scalable procedure for its production is elaborated. The potential of the reaction, along with its advantages/simplicity, convenience, and effectiveness, is demonstrated and discussed.
