Thirteen examples of stabilised alkynol ylides 6 have been prepared and are found, upon flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) at 500 deg C, to undergo extrusion of Ph3PO to give the diacetylenic esters 7 in moderate yield.At 750 deg C the same ylides afforded terminal 1,3-diynes 8 although often in poor yield.For R = 2-MeSC6H4 both 7 and 8 undergo secondary loss of Me* and cyclisation to give 2-alkynylbenzothiophene derivatives 9 and 10 in low yield.The first example of an alkadiynol ylide 11 has been prepared and is converted by FVP at 500 deg C into the triacetylenic ester 12.
