S-TOSYLSULFENE CHLORIDE - THE FIRST REPRESENTATIVE OF A NEW CLASS OF SULFENE HALIDES

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00864549

A representative of a previously unknown class of S-sulfonylsulfene halides - S-tosylsulfene chloride (1) - was prepared for the first time. It was shown that the reaction of sulfene chloride 1 with cyclohexene yields trans-2-chlorocyclohexyl-p-toluene thiosulfonate, and the reaction with 1-hexene yields a mixture of 2-chlorohexyl-p-toluene thiosulfonate and 1-chloro-2-hexyl-p-toluene thiosulfonate. Keywords: sulfene chloride, S-sulfonylsulfene chloride, sulfo-sulfenylation.
