Nucleophilic attack of thiols on phenylacetylene (1) in liquid ammonia at room temperature gave the corresponding Z-isomer of styryl sulfides in high yield stereoselectively.Reaction of 1 with Na2S also proceeded selectively to give Z,Z-distyryl sulfide (12).On the other hand, reaction with NaSH gave 12 besides E,Z-isomer as a minor product.

THP (tetrahydropyran) has been found to show an excellent stability towards autooxidation, compared with THF. Tributyltin hydride mediated radical cyclization, when conducted in THF as a solvent, suffers from competition of hydrogen abstraction from the solvent, whereas the use of THP resulted in the course to negligible degree. Tributyltin hydride, TTMSS, and hexanethiol mediated radical reactions were carried out successfully using THP as a solvent.
