Palladium-catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reactions of 2-methylene-1,3-dithiane 1-oxide with aryl iodides
Treatment of 2-methylene-1,3-dithiane 1-oxide with aryl iodides under palladium catalysis in the presence of potassium carbonate and tetrabutylammonium bromide leads to the Mizoroki-Heck arylation to yield 2-(arylmethylene)-1,3-dithiane 1-oxides in high y
