When ethyl is infinitely different from methyl: Double addition of lithiated dithianes to aromatic carboxylates revisited

Addition of lithiated alkyl dithianes to benzoyl chloride or methyl benzoate does not produce the expected product of double addition, α,α-bis(alkyldithianyl) benzyl alcohol, for alkyls larger than methyl. Instead, the first step intermediate, i.e. 2-benz

We report the facile amide-forming ligation of acylsilanes with hydroxylamines (ASHA ligation) under aqueous conditions. The ligation is fast, chemoselective, mild, high-yielding and displays excellent functional-group tolerance. Late-stage modifications of an array of marketed drugs, peptides, natural products, and biologically active compounds showcase the robustness and functional-group tolerance of the reaction. The key to the success of the reaction could be the possible formation of the strong Si?O bond via a Brook-type rearrangement. Given its simplicity and efficiency, this ligation has the potential to unfold new applications in the areas of medicinal chemistry and chemical biology.

The autoxidative condensation of 2-aryl-2-lithio-1,3-dithianes is here reported. Treatment of 2-aryl-1,3-dithianes with n-BuLi in the absence of any electrophile leads to condensation of three molecules of 1,3-dithianes and formation of highly functionalized α-thioether ketones orthothioesters in 51-89% yields upon air exposure. The method was further expanded to benzaldehyde dithioacetals, affording corresponding orthothioesters and α-thioether ketones in 48-97% yields. The experimental results combined with density functional theory studies support a mechanism triggered by the autoxidation of 2-aryl-2-lithio-1,3-dithianes to yield a highly reactive thioester that undergoes condensation with two other molecules of 2-aryl-2-lithio-1,3-dithiane.
