Co-electroreduction of methyl dithiobenzoate (1a) and 1,3-dimesyloxypropane (5) in acetonitrile yields the tetrahydrodithiepine 6, whereas the thiirane 9 is formed from trimethylene-1,3-bis-dithiobenzoate (7a) and methyl iodide.The bis-thioacetals 8 are obtained, if 7a and its homologue 7b are electrolized together with methyl iodide; the heterocyclic bis-thioacetal 10 is formed from 7c as a mixture of the meso- and d,l-diastereomers in acetonitrile.
