Abstract

The cyclization of 1, 3-bis (trimethylsilyloxy)-1, 3-butadienes with 3-oxo-bis (methylthio) ketenacetals afforded 3-(methylthio) phenols containing an acyl or ester substituent located at position 2. The cyclization of free 1, 3-dicarbonyl dianions with 3-oxo-bis (methylthio) ketenacetals resulted in the formation of regioisomeric products containing an acyl group located at position 6.
