The 1,3-oxazolidinethi one 4 has been synthesized from (S)-valine and used in the intramolecular sulfur transfer in its N-enoyl derivatives in the presence of NbCl5 as catalyst, which, moreover, works as an indicator of the course of the reaction. The adducts have subsequently been transformed into the corresponding beta-mercapto esters by action of Sm(OTf)(3) in methanol. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
