Homologous series of alkane-1-thiols, alkane-2-thiols, alkane-3-thiols, 2-methylalkane-1-thiols, 2-methylalkane-3-thiols, 2-methylalkane-2-thiols, and alkane-1,??-dithiols were synthesized to study the influence of structural changes on odor qualities and odor thresholds. In particular, the odor thresholds were strongly influenced by steric effects: In all homologous series a minimum was observed for thiols with five to seven carbon atoms, whereas increasing the chain length led to an exponential increase in the odor threshold. Tertiary alkanethiols revealed clearly lower odor thresholds than found for primary or secondary thiols, whereas neither a second mercapto group in the molecule nor an additional methyl substitution lowered the threshold. To investigate the impact of the SH group, odor thresholds and odor qualities of thiols were compared to those of the corresponding alcohols and (methylthio)alkanes. Replacement of the SH group by an OH group as well as S-methylation of the thiols significantly increased the odor thresholds. By using comparative molecular field analysis, a 3D quantitative structure-activity relationship model was created, which was able to simulate the odor thresholds of alkanethiols in good agreement with the experimental results. NMR and mass spectrometric data for 46 sulfur-containing compounds are additionally supplied.

Ionic liquids [bmim][X] (X = Cl, Br, I, OAc, SCN) are highly efficient reagents for nucleophilic substitution reactions of sulfonate esters derived from primary and secondary alcohols. The counter anions (X-) of the ionic liquids, [bmim][X], effectively replace the sufonates affording the corresponding substitution products such as alkyl halides, acetates, and thiocyanides in excellent yields. The newly developed protocol is very environmentally attractive because the reactions use stoichiometric amounts of ionic liquids as sole reagents in most cases and do not require additional solvents, any other activating reagents, non-conventional equipment, or special precautions. Moreover, these ionic liquids can be readily recycled without loss of reactivity, making the whole process greener. Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.

(Chemical Equation Presented) We have developed a general, robust, and cost-effective method for the (E)- or (Z)-stereocomplementary enol tosylation of β-ketoesters using TsCl-N-methylimidazole (NMI)-Et3N or LiOH. TsCl coupled with NMI formed a
