A novel and efficient I2‐mediated direct synthesis of methylthio‐substituted catechols from cyclohexanones was developed. Various cyclohexanones underwent oxygenation, methylthiolation, and dehydrogenative aromatization in one pot to form the desired products in moderate to good yields. DMSO was utilized as the solvent, oxygen source, and methylthiolation agent. A possible reaction mechanism is proposed
开发了一种新颖有效的由I 2介导的由环己酮直接合成甲硫基取代的邻苯二酚的方法。在一锅中对各种环己酮进行氧合,甲硫醇化和脱氢芳构化,以中等至良好的收率形成所需的产物。DMSO被用作溶剂,氧气源和甲硫醇化剂。提出了一种可能的反应机理。
