At low temperature and in the presence of an acid catalyst, SO2 adds to 1,3-dienes equilibrating with the corresponding 3,6-dihydro-1,2-oxathiin-2-oxides (sultines). These compounds are unstable above -60 degrees C and equilibrate with the more stable 2,5- ...
Sulphur dioxide reacts with 1-oxydienes generating zwitterions which are quenched by enoxysilanes to form substituted silyl alkenylsulfinates. These intermediates are desilylated with Bu4NF and the resulting sulfinates react with MeI giving the correspondi ...
In the presence of sulfur dioxide and an acid promoter, (-)-(1E,3Z)-2-methyl-1-((1S)-1-phenyleth- oxy)penta-1,3-dien-3-yl isobutyrate reacts with (Z)-3-(trimethylsilyloxy)-pent-2-ene giving a silyl sulfinate intermediate that undergoes, in the presence of ...
Alcohols, phenols and carboxylic acids are silylated with very good yields in the presence of silyl methallylsulfinates under non- basic conditions and with the formation of volatile co-products. ...
