Abstract
Abstract Treatment of S-alkyl thioesters with a reagent prepared from RCHBr 2, Zn, TiCl 4, and TMEDA in THF at 25 C gives Z-alkenyl sulfides selectively in good to excellent yields. Using the alkylidenation method, ketene dithioacetals and enamines are produced from 1, 3- dithian-2-one and amides, respectively.
