The brief heating of 5-aryl-4,6-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-1,3-dithiane 1,1,3,3-tetroxides in an alkyline medium leads to 5-aryl-4,6-dicarboxy-1,3-dithane 1,1,3,3-tetroxides, which are decarboxylated when heated in an acidic medium with the formation of 5-aryl-1,3-dithiane 1,1,3,3-tetroxides.The prolonged action of heat on 5-aryl-4,6-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-1,3-dithiane 1,1,3,3-tetroxides in an alkaline medium leads to their cleavage into benzaldehyde, acetophenone, bis(methylsulfonyl)methane, dimethylsulfone, and 1-methylsulfonyl-2-arylvinylacetic acids.Their formation is due to the various reactions which take place simultaneously during extensive hydrolysis.
