Introduction of a silyl group at the α-position of allylic sulfides, followed by the aluminum chloride-catalyzed reaction of the resulting α-silylallylic sulfides with acid chlorides resulted in regioselective acylation at the γ-position of the allylic system to give γ-acylated vinylic sulfides, chemically equivalent to 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds.Heating of the products in refluxing benzene with an equimolar amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid produced 2-cyclopentanone derivatives.Treatment of the acylated products with an equimolar amount of concentrated sulfuric acid gave α-phenylthiofuran derivatives.These procedures provide a novel method for cyclopentannelation and furan annelation.Keywords - α-silylallylic sulfide; acid chloride; aluminum chloride; acid-catalyzed acylation; vinylic sulfide; 2-cyclopentanone; α-phenylthiofuran; furan; cyclopentannelation; furan annelation

An aluminum chloride-catalyzed reaction of 1-(phenylthiotrimethylsilylmethyl)cyclohexene, readily obtainable from cyclohexanone, with acid chlorides in dichloromethane underwent a regioselective acylation at the γ-position of the allylic system to give γ-acyl enol thioethers in good yields.Heating of these enol thioethers with an equimolar amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid produced 2-cyclopentenone derivatives.This novel method for cyclopentannelation provides a new entry to 2-cyclopentenone ring systems.
