Abstract

By SUNGGAK KIM* and JAE IN LEE, (Department of Chemistry, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Seoul 13 1, Korea) and BONG YOUNG CHUNG (Department of Chemistry, Korea University, Seoul, Kovea) ... Summary Reaction of lithium dialkylcuprates with S-2- pyridyl thioates in the presence of oxygen affords carb- oxylic esters in high yields, whereas under nitrogen it affords ketones. ... S-~-PYRIDYL THIOATES have recently attracted a ...
