S-Alkyl alkanethioates were formed in high yields by successive reactions of 1 -iodoalk-1-enyl- bis( 1,2-dimethyIpropyl)boranes with at kylthiomagnesium bromides and alkaline hydrogen peroxide. ... There have been few studies on the synthesis of substituted alkenylboranes by the introduction of a substituent onto the a-alkenyl carbon atom of alk-1-enylboranes.1 In the course of studies to modify the alkenyl moiety of alkenylboranes, we found that S-alkyl ...
