Abstract

Results% action of the Adduct 2a with Cyanide Ion. This reaction was successful only in dimethyl sulfoxide (MeaO). Many attempts in acetonitrile led only to an almost quantitative yield of thianthrene, that is, as if electron transfer had occurred. The isolated products of reaction in MezSO after 6 h (eq 4) were thianthrene (3, 94%), 1-
