The mechanism of the electroreduction of alkenyldimethylsulfonium salts

The potential of electroreduction of alkenyldimethylsulfonium salts and the preferable direction of C-S bond cleavage are determined to a considerable extent by the position of the double bond in the alkenyl substituent. - Key words: sulfonium salts; electroreduction; mercury cathode.

Universal approach to the synthesis of juvenoid hydroprene and methoprene from 4-methyltetrahydropyran
