The cross-metathesisreaction of S-ethyl thioacrylate with a variety of olefins is effectively catalyzed by using a ruthenium benzylidene olefin metathesis catalyst. This reaction provides a convenient and versatile route to substituted α,β-unsaturated thioesters, key building blocks in organic synthesis.

Vinylsulfones serve as highly effective reacting partners in tributylphosphine catalyzed cross-Michael cycloisomerization. In all cases examined, the vinylsulfone moiety exclusively serves as the Michael acceptor to provide 5- and 6-membered ring products as single constitutional isomers in good to excellent yields.
