Regioselective Synthesis of
2-(Arylthio)benzoates by the First Catalytic [3+3] Cyclocondensations
of 3-(Arylthio)-1-(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 1,1,3,3-Tetramethoxypropane
2-(Arylthio)benzoates were regioselectively prepared by the first catalytic [3+3] cyclizations of 3-(arylthio)-1-(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 1,1,3,3-tetramethoxypropane.
Synthesis of 2-(arylthio)benzoates by [3+3] cyclocondensations of 3-arylthio-1-silyloxy-1,3-butadienes with 3-oxo-orthoesters, 1,1,3,3-tetramethoxypropane and 1,1-bis(methylthio)-1-en-3-ones
variety of 2-arylthio-4-methoxybenzoates are regioselectively prepared by TiCl4-mediated [3+3] cyclocondensations of 3-arylthio-1-trimethylsilyloxy-1,3-butadienes with 3-oxo-orthoesters. Unsubstituted 2-(arylthio)benzoates were prepared by Me3SiOTf-catalyzed cyclization of 3-arylthio-1-trimethylsilyloxy-1,3-butadienes with 1,1,3,3-tetramethoxypropane. The TiCl4-mediated cyclization of 3-arylthio-1-trimethylsilyloxy-1
