- Trifluoromethylthiolation of 1,3-dithiane
-
With a view to synthesize 2-(trifluoromethylthio)-1,3-dithiane (1), 1,3-dithiane (2) was reacted in dry pentane at -78°C under dry N2 with trifluoromethylsulfenyl chloride (3) and was found to furnish the desired compound in poor yields along with ten other compounds. Under similar conditions, 2-lithio-1,3-dithiane on treatment with 2 and bis-(trifluoromethyl) disulfide (4) gave 8.0% and 10.0% yields of 1, respectively. In connection with this study, (cholromethyl) propyl sulfide and bis(propylthio)methane were synthesized. The reaction of the latter with 3 was also investigated. The characterization of the primary compound formed in the reaction of 2 with 3 using the 'INAPT'-NMR and GC-MS, the probable mechanism of the formation of the various compounds and their mass spectral identification are presented in this article.

- A concise synthesis of thyroxine (T4) and 3,5,3'-Triiodo-L-thyronine (T3)
-
The mono- and di-iodo derivatives of 1-oxaspiro[2,5]bicycloocta-4,7-dien-6-one, 8 and 9, reacted readily with 3,5-diiodo-L-tyrosine at pH 8.0 to give 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) and thyroxine in 70% and 94% yields respectively. In turn, 8 and 9 were prepared by the sodium bismuthate oxidation of their corresponding iodinated p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol derivatives, 6 and 7 in 32% and 37% yields.
