Reduction of Ketene Dithioacetal S,S-Dioxides with Sodium Borohydride and Its Application to a Convenient Synthesis of Alkyl Arylmethyl Ketones

The C-C double bond of a ketene dithioacetal S,S-dioxide was found to undergo reduction with sodium borohydride.This fact provides an efficient synthetic route from an aromatic aldehyde to an alkyl arylmethyl ketone using methylthiomethyl p-totyl sulfone.

UTILIZATION OF METHYLTHIOMETHYL p-TOLYL SULFONE IN ORGANIC SYNTHESIS

Methylthiomethyl p-tolyl sulfone was found to be one of the useful reagents for preparation of various organic compounds such as S-methyl α-ketocarbothioates, carboxylic esters, five- and six-membered cycloalkanones, and α-methoxy-α-arylacetic esters.
