Sulfides heteroaromatic

Tautomerism of the A-2-thiazoline-5-thiones has not been investigated intensively. A recent report shows that 2-phenylthiazo e-5-thiols exist in the thiol form in both polar and nonpolar solvents (563). This behavior is in contrast with that of corresponding thiazolones. Addition reactions involve only the exocyclic sulfur atom, and thiazole-5-thiols behave as typical heteroaromatic thiols towards unsaturated systems, giving sulfides (1533) (Scheme 80) (563),... 

Nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic compounds react with (chloromethyl)[(tri-methylsilyl)methyl] sulfide in the presence of CsF to afford fused 1,3-thiazolidines of type 130. These compounds are the result of a formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition of the parent thiocarbonyl ylide la across the C=N bond (170). In these cases, the formation of the five-membered cycloadduct is believed to occur in two steps via an intermediate onium ion. 

In organo-fluorine compounds fluorine atoms can be eliminated by nucleophilic sulfur species to form C —S bonds. In principle, the fluorine to be eliminated can be bonded to aliphatic or araliphatic compounds, as well as to aromatic or heterocyclic compounds however, the replacement proceeds more efficiently the more the fluorine is activated. Therefore, the synthetic usefulness of these reactions is the broadest with fluoroaromatic compounds, including heteroaromatics, with which the reactions often proceed smoothly under mild conditions. The nucleophilic sulfur compound to be reacted is. in most cases, an aliphatic or aromatic thiol or a metal sulfide, but reactions with, for example, thiourea or ammonium thiocyanate have also been described. The sulfur introduced this way can be either oxidized or removed by reduction, opening additional possibilities for modifications of the original fluoro compounds. 

In the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, the hydrogen converts aromatic and heteroaromatic species, and further converts heteroatoms to hydrogen sulfide, water, and ammonia. 

Diacyloxyiodo)benzenes like 3 and 4 have been especially popular for the oxidation of phenol derivatives. Recently some electronically modified reagents of this type have been synthesized, where the benzene moiety has been replaced by a heteroaromatic system. For compounds 15-17 see Scheme 3. The reagents 15 and 16 have been used for oxidations of hydroquinones and sulfides as well... 

Treatment of aryl and heteroaryl o-azidocarbaldehydes with bis(trimethylsilyl)sulfide and hydrochloric acid gave fused isothiazoles, via thionation of the formyl function followed by spontaneous decomposition at room temperature. Yield was dependent upon the nature of the heteroaromatic ring. [94CL1873, 94PS479]... 

Aromatic, certain heteroaromatic, aliphatic and a,/ -unsaturated aldehydes could all be epoxidized in high enantio- and diastereoselectivity with moderate to good yields in reactions using sulfide 4 and the sodium salt of benzaldehyde tosylhy-drazone [29]. 

Figure 10.2 illustrates selected examples of these epoxide products. Aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes proved to be excellent substrates, regardless of steric or electronic effects, with the exception of pyridine carboxaldehydes. Yields of aliphatic and a,/ -unsaturated aldehydes were more varied, though the enantio-selectivities were always excellent. The scope of tosylhydrazone salts that could be reacted with benzaldehyde was also tested (Fig. 10.3) [29]. Electron-rich aromatic tosylhydrazones gave epoxides in excellent selectivity and good yield, except for the mesitaldehyde-derived hydrazone. Heteroaromatic, electron-poor aromatic and a,/ -unsaturated-derived hydrazones gave more varied results, and some substrates were not compatible with the catalytic conditions described. The use of stoichiometric amounts of preformed sulfonium salt derived from 4 has been shown to be suitable for a wider range of substrates, including those that are incompatible with the catalytic cycle, and the sulfide can be recovered quantitatively afterwards [31]. Overall, the demonstrated scope of this in situ protocol is wider than that of the alkylation/deprotonation protocol, and the extensive substrate...

There is a substantial body of literature on the palladium- and nickel-catalyzed formation of aryl sulfides, selenides, and phosphines from aromatic and heteroaromatic halides. Progress on these reactions has continued with several recent contributions [47-50]. A review in 1997 covered the types of transformations that can be conducted and the types of catalysts used [51]. Particularly useful examples are the conversions ofbinaphthol to binaphthylphosphines... 

Differential pulse voltammetric and polarographic methods described in this section represent a significant enhancement of the available instrumental analysis capabilities for the quantitative speciation of sulfide, thiosulfate, sulfite and of heteroaromatic sulfur moieties in coal conversion process streams and products.

Russell and co-workers have obtained cation-radicals in the 1,2-dithiete system. Such radicals are cyclic, conjugated within the heterocycle, and possess (4 -P 1) electrons, with = 1 they are consequently heteroaromatic witliin the definition given in the introduction to Part I. 3,4-Dimethyl-l,2-dithiete cation radical 89 (R = R = Me) was obtained by treatment of acetoin in sulfuric acid with sulfide ion. The radical is persistent at ambient temperature and unaffected by oxygen. This evident stability, and its formation from open-chain precursors to the exclusion of acyclic possibilities such as 90, whose oxygen equivalent exists, implies that aromatic stabilization of 89 and similar radicals is a matter of fact and not merely definition.

Nickel- or palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions of alkyl Grignard or zinc reagents can be applied to heteroaromatic halides and sulfides. The characteristic features are, therefore, based on those described in the preceding sections and hence details are not repeated in this section. Aspects are summarized by the types of heteroaromatic compounds NiCh(DPPP) is used as catalyst, unless stated otherwise hereafter. 

Aromatic and heteroaromatic thioketones may be obtained by the action of hydrogen sulfide on diarylimines (14) in this reaction, carbon disulfide may be substituted for hydrogen sulfide (Scheme 7). The mechanisms for these reactions are outlined in Scheme 7.
