Uses

Used in Agricultural Industry:
2-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1,3-dithiolane is used as a fungicide for controlling fungal diseases in a wide range of crops, including cereals, oilseeds, fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. It functions by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, which leads to the disruption of fungal growth and reproduction.
The low acute toxicity of 2-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1,3-dithiolane to mammals and beneficial insects makes it a favorable choice for integrated pest management programs, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices and crop protection.

Sulfur-Directed Ligand-Free C-H Borylation by Iridium Catalysis

An iridium-catalyzed ortho C-H borylation reaction directed by cyclic dithioacetal moiety is disclosed. A series of borylation products were obtained in moderate to good yields under mild conditions in exclusive mono- and ortho-regioselectivity. Thus, the 1,3-dithiane or 1,3-dithiolane group serves as a remarkable effective directing group for C-H borylation without any ligand assistance. The further transformations of the borylation products are also carried out to change boryl group to other functional groups.

Indium-Catalyzed Reductive Dithioacetalization of Carboxylic Acids with Dithiols: Scope, Limitations, and Application to Oxidative Desulfurization

In this study an InI3-TMDS (1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane) reducing system effectively catalyzed the reductive dithioacetalization of a variety of aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids with 1,2-ethanedithiol or 1,3-propanedithiol leading to the one-pot preparation of either 1,3-dithiolane derivatives or a 1,3-dithiane derivative. Also, the intact indium catalyst continuously catalyzed the subsequent oxidative desulfurization of an in situ formed 1,3-dithiolane derivative, which led to the preparation of the corresponding aldehydes.

One-pot two-step conversion of aromatic carboxylic acids and esters to aromatic aldehydes via indium-catalyzed reductive thioacetalization and desulfurization

Described herein is that a new approach to a one-pot two-step conversion of aromatic carboxylic acids/esters to aromatic aldehydes, in which indium(III) iodide effectively catalyzes both the first reductive thioacetalization of carboxylic acids and a subsequent desulfurization of the in-situ formed thioacetal intermediates leading to aldehydes.

B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed Hydrodesulfurization Using Hydrosilanes - Metal-Free Reduction of Sulfides

B(C6F5)3-catalyzed hydrodesulfurization of carbon-sulfur bonds was achieved using triethylsilane as the reducing agent. The corresponding products were obtained in good yields under mild reaction conditions. This protocol could be applied to the reduction of sulfides, including benzyl and alkyl sulfides and dithianes, with high chemoselectivities. (Chemical Equation Presented).

Oxidative cross-esterification of dithiolanes with alcohols through a cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC)/deprotection sequence

An unprecedented oxidative cross-esterification in an equimolar mixture of dithiolanes, alcohols and water through a CDC/deprotection sequence has been developed. The reaction itself features simple experimental procedures under very mild conditions and offers a new strategic protocol for the direct and efficient synthesis of structurally diverse esters.
