Sulfides vinyl

The cis thioboration of terminal alkynes with 9-(arylthio)-9-BBN is catalyzed by Pd(Pli3P)4 in the presence of styrene. The product 136 is converted into the vinyl sulfides 137 and 138 by the treatment with MeOH or by Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling with aryl or alkenyl halides using K3PO4 in DMF[68]. No thioboration takes place with internal alkynes. 

Hydrometallation is catalyzed by Pd. Hydroboration of l-buten-2-methyl-3-yne (197) with catecholborane (198) gives the 1,4-adduct 199 with 84% selectivity. The ratio of Pd to phosphine (1 1.5) is important[l 10]. The vinyl sulfide 201 is prepared by a one-pot reaction of the thioalkyne 200 via a Pd-catalyzed hydroborution-coupling sequence using dppf as a ligand[l 11]. 

Formation of Sulfides. Thiols react readily with alkenes under the same types of conditions used to manufacture thiols. In this way, dialkyl sulfides and mixed alkyl sulfides can be produced. Sulfides are a principal by-product of thiol production. Mixed sulfides can be formed by the reaction of the thiol using a suitable starting material, as shown in equations 21, 22, and 23. Vinyl sulfides can be produced by the reaction of alkynes with thiols (38). 

Vinyllithium [917-57-7] can be formed direcdy from vinyl chloride by means of a lithium [7439-93-2] dispersion containing 2 wt % sodium [7440-23-5] at 0—10°C. This compound is a reactive intermediate for the formation of vinyl alcohols from aldehydes, vinyl ketones from organic acids, vinyl sulfides from disulfides, and monosubstituted alkenes from organic halides. It can also be converted to vinylcopper [37616-22-1] or divinylcopper lithium [22903-99-7], which can then be used to introduce a vinyl group stereoselectively into a variety of a, P-unsaturated systems (26), or simply add a vinyl group to other a, P-unsaturated compounds to give y, 5-unsaturated compounds. Vinyllithium reagents can also be converted to secondary alcohols with trialkylb o r ane s. 

Vinyl chloride reacts with sulfides, thiols, alcohols, and oximes in basic media. Reaction with hydrated sodium sulfide [1313-82-2] in a mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide [67-68-5] (DMSO) and potassium hydroxide [1310-58-3], KOH, yields divinyl sulfide [627-51-0] and sulfur-containing heterocycles (27). Various vinyl sulfides can be obtained by reacting vinyl chloride with thiols in the presence of base (28). Vinyl ethers are produced in similar fashion, from the reaction of vinyl chloride with alcohols in the presence of a strong base (29,30). A variety of pyrroles and indoles have also been prepared by reacting vinyl chloride with different ketoximes or oximes in a mixture of DMSO and KOH (31). 

Cycloadditioiis in which 1,2-dithietes acted formally as dienes are among the most typieal reaetions of 1,2-dithietes. Tire dithiete 144 is highly reaetive and eapable of reaetions even with simple alkenes and alkynes (60JA1515 61JA3434,61JA3438).Tlius, 144 reaeted with aeetylene to form 191 and 192 with the initial formation of 193, and with tetramethylethylene to give 194. Other [4 + 2] eyeloadditions of 144 involved those with ethylene, cyelohexene, fra s-stilbene, ethyl vinyl ether, butyl vinyl sulfide, 3-hexyne, and DMAD. 

Add hydrolysis of l-ethylthiobut-l-en-3-yne (143) (10% sulfuric acid, 60-95°C) mainly involves hydration of the triple bond (evidently due to the greater hydrolytie stability of the vinyl sulfide moiety of the moleeule), whieh results in the formation of l-ethylthiobut-l-en-3-one (144). The latter is further hydrolyzed to aeetoaeetie aldehyde (132) (75IZV1975 78IZV153). 

Intermediate 37 can be transformed into ( )-thienamycin [( )-1)] through a sequence of reactions nearly identical to that presented in Scheme 3 (see 22— 1). Thus, exposure of /(-keto ester 37 to tosyl azide and triethylamine results in the facile formation of pure, crystalline diazo keto ester 4 in 65 % yield from 36 (see Scheme 5). Rhodium(n) acetate catalyzed decomposition of 4, followed by intramolecular insertion of the resultant carbene 3 into the proximal N-H bond, affords [3.2.0] bicyclic keto ester 2. Without purification, 2 is converted into enol phosphate 42 and thence into vinyl sulfide 23 (76% yield from 4).18 Finally, catalytic hydrogenation of 23 proceeds smoothly (90%) to afford ( )-thienamycin... 

The acid-catalyzed reaction of enol ethers 2 (X = OR) and enamines 2 (X = NR2) to form y-lactol derivatives proceeds with great ease even on silica gel chromatography. Vinyl sulfides 2 (X = SR) or vinyl chlorides 2 (X = Cl) are difficult to hydrolyze. 

The behavior of v(C=C) also indicates strong conjugation in methyl vinyl sulfide through the participation of one of the sulfur lone pairs in 7i(pp) bonding (cf. 15). v(C=C)... 

Modena and colleagues47 have developed use of some chiral, non-racemic terpene alcohols as directing groups for highly diastereoselective m-chloroperbenzoic oxidation of sulfides into sulfoxides. Specifically the isobornyl vinylic sulfides 8 undergo hydroxyl-directed oxidation to give a 9 1 ratio of diastereomeric sulfoxides (equation 11). 

As a continuation of these studies, Bauld recently reported evidence of a stepwise mechanism in the cation-radical Diels-Alder reaction of phenyl vinyl sulfide with cyclopentadiene [34, 35] (Scheme 1.6). 

Vinylic sulfides containing an a hydrogen can also be alkylated by alkyl halides or epoxides. This is a method for converting an alkyl halide RX to an a,P unsaturated aldehyde, which is the synthetic equivalent of the unknown HC=CH—CHO ion. Even simple alkyl aryl sulfides RCH2SAr and RR CHSAr have been alkylated a to the sulfur. ... 

Thiols add to alkenes under photochemical conditions to form thioethers, and the reaction can be done intramolecularly to give cyclic thioethers. Thiols also add to alkynes and with a palladium catalyst, vinyl sulfides can be formed. " Selenium compounds (RSeH) add in a similar manner. ...

Part C of the present procedure illustrates a mild method for effecting the elimination of thiophenol from thioacetals and thioketals under essentially neutral conditions. The reaction of simple thioacetals and thioketals with bis[copper(I) trifluoro-methanesulfonate] benzene complex in benzene-tetrahydrofuran at room temperature affords vinyl sulfides in high yield (Table I). The reaction presumably occurs by coordination of the thiophilic copper(I) reagent with sulfur, heterolysis to a phenylthio-stabilized... 

Vinyl sulfides have found numerous applications in synthesis in the recent literature. Vinyl sulfides unsubstituted in the 1-position are metallated readily, and the resulting 1-phenythio- or 1-alkylthiovinyllithium reagents have been utilized for nucleophilic acylation and other applications. " The phenylthio-substituted...
