Abstract

In the previous paper, 2 the hydrogenolysis of acetals and ketals to hydroxyethers by “mixed h~ dride”~(lithium aluminurn hydride-aluminum chloride in a 1: 4 ratio) in ether solution was described. This method has now been extended to hemithioacetals and hemithioketals. In all cases, cleavage of the carbon-oxygen bond occurred exclusively (eq. i), the carbon-sulfur bond remaining intact, as evidenced by the absence of base-soluble mercaptans among ...
