Abstract

By DOUGLAS B. GROTJAHN and NIELS H. ANDERSEN* (Department of Chemistry, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98 195) ... Summary Ditliianyl anions capable of carbocyclization via either direct or Michael addition to a carbonyl unit can be generated from 2-trimethylsilyl- 1,S-dithians. ... To date the carbonyl anion equivalence of the 1,S-dithian function1 has not been realized in intramolecular additions to carbonyl comp0unds.t Any base strong enough to ...
