Abstract

Results When benzenesulfenyl chloride is added to cyclohexene in acetonitrile in the presence of silver fluoride at room temperature, l-fluoro-2-(phenylthio) cyclohexane is formed in 70% yield. None of the corresponding chloro derivative is observed in the NMR of the crude reaction product. The phenylthio and the fluorine are trans to one another as determined by NMR. From the spin-decoupled spectrum of l-fluoro-2-(phenylthio) ...
