By means of non-aqueous reduction of pipsyl chloride followed by treatment with K2CO3 and then reacting with acetyl chloride or benzyl chloride, S-acetyl/benzyl -4-iodothiophenols were obtained in a one-pot procedure with yield as hi

A variety of S-thiophenol protecting groups have been evaluated for the Heck reaction.Of these, the S-acetyl group appears to be the best suited for facile removal under mild conditions to provide the coresponding free thiols in high yields.

Irradiation of 1-bromo-2-[(phenylmethyl)thio]benzene (1), 1-iodo-2-[(phenylmethyl)thio]benzene (2), and 1-iodo-4-[(phenylmethyl)thio]benzene (3), in DMSO as solvent in the presence of pinacolone enolate ion led to entirely different product distributions. Thus, irradiation of 1 afforded exclusively fragmentation of the C-S bond of the thiobenzyl moiety, yielding bibenzyl and 2-bromobenzenethiol, whereas irradiation of 2, under the same reaction conditions, afforded the intramolecularly-cyclized product benzothiochromene (9), which arises from a C-I bond scission. Irradiation of 3, in DMSO as solvent and in the presence of pinacolone enolate ion, afforded p-iodobenzenethiol as the only product under controlled-irradiation conditions. The differences in product distributions upon irradiation of compounds 1,2, and 3 are ascribed to the different fragmentation rates of the C-X and S-benzyl bonds in the radical anion intermediates which arise from ET reactions from pinacolone enolate ion to the substrates. In this fashion, irradiation of 2 generates a radical anion which readily fragments to iodide ion and the respective aryl radical, which undergoes internal cyclization. Loss of a proton regenerates the radical anion of 9, which in turn transfers the odd electron back to a substrate molecule 2 to continue the chain process. Conversely, the radical anions derived from 1 and 3 fragment into benzyl radicals and the respective sulfides, precluding the chain mechanism. Product quantum yields were determined from irradiation of 1, 2, and 3 in the presence of pinacolone enolate ion, and are in accordance with the mechanisms proposed.
