Abstract

Abstract Ketene thioacetals R′ CH= C (SR ″)(SR′″)(with R′= H or alkyl and R ″, R′″= alkyl) have been obtained in very good yields by treatment of dithioesters R′ CH 2 C= S (SR ″) with one equivalent of potassium amide in liquid ammonia and subsequent alkylation with alkyl halide R′″Br or R′″I.
