Cydopropyl methanol

Notes ° Unless otherwise noted, sodium alkoxides (1.25-2.5 equiv) prepared in situ from the corresponding alcohols with NaH in THF were allowed to react with CICH2SPh (1 equiv) and t-BuOK (equivalent to alkoxides) for the period indicated. b All products showed satisfactory spectra I data (IR,1H NMR, and mass). c Yields refer to the isolated yield based on CICH2SPh. d Satisfactory analytical results were obtained for these compounds. ef-BuONa (2.5 equiv) was employed in place of t-BuOK. f [3.3-dimethyl-2-(phenylthio)cydopropyl]methanol (mixture of isomers). BCH2=C=CHOCH2SPh.
