Abstract

Abstract The mercuric ion-catalyzed hydration of 1, 4-bis (arylthio)-2-butynes and 1-aryloxy- 4-arylthio-2-butynes was studied. The 1, 4-bis (arylsulfonyl)-2-butynes afforded 1, 4-bis (arylsulfonyl)-2-butanones (7). The 1, 4-bis (arylthio)-2-butynes afforded a variety of products in acetic acid among which were: 1, 4-bis (arylthiomethyl) vinyl acetate (18); 1, 4-bis (arylthio)-2-butanone (15); 1-(arylthio)-3-buten-2-one (16); and 1-(arylthio)-4-acetoxy-2- ...
