Stereoselective additions of chiral (E)-crotylsilanes to thionium ions: Asymmetric synthesis of homoallylic thioethers

Stereochemically well-defined homoallylic thioethers 3 are synthesized via Lewis acid promoted condensation reaction between chiral organosilane reagents 2 and in situ generated thionium ions. The stereochemical course of the reaction is consistent with earlier reports concerning crotylsilations of oxonium ions.

Lithium bromide, a novel and highly effective catalyst for monothioacetalization of acetals under mild reaction conditions

Lithium bromide is efficient as a catalyst for the monothioacetalization of acetals under mild reaction conditions to provide products in excellent yields with high chemoselectivity.

DIRECT CONVERSION OF CARBOXYLIC ACIDS AND CARBOXYLIC ESTERS INTO S,S'-DIPHENYL ACETALS AND PHENYL SULFIDES WITH THEXYLPHENYLTHIOBORANE

Reaction of carboxylic acids with thexylphenylthioborane in methylene chloride at room temperature gives S,S-diphenyl acetals in high yields and carboxylic esters are converted into phenyl sulfides in the presence of zinc iodide under similar conditions.

Synthesis of Alkenes via Peterson Reaction

The α-phenylthiosilanes (2) have been used to prepare the α-silyl anions (1) by reaction with lithium naphthalenide; subsequent condensation with a carbonyl compound gave the alkene (8) via the Peterson reaction.The α-phenylthiosilanes (2) were prepared from n,n-bis(phenylthio)acetals (4) by reaction with lithium naphthalenide and chlorotrimethylsilane.The n,n-bis(phenylthio)acetals (4) were obtained, in turn, from 1,1-bis(phenylthio)acetals (5) by anion formation with butyl-lithium-N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine complex in hexane followed by reaction with an alkyl halide.The Peterson reaction was also used to prepare vinyl sulphides (9) and vinyl sulphones (13).
