Vinyl sulfide formation with good yield and high regio- and stereoselectivities from thiols and acetylenesunder transition-metal-free conditions is described. Potassium phosphate was used as an effective additive to enhance the reaction yield and selectivity. Z-Vinyl sulfides were predominately formed in the presence of potassium phosphate, whereas E-vinyl sulfides were formed under solvent- and base-free
A new method for the synthesis of anti-Markovnikov Z- or E-vinyl thioethers from thiosilane and terminal alkynes under visible-light-induced photoredox/nickel dual catalysis conditions is described. With a judicious choice of a simple nickel catalyst and a ligand, this strategy enables efficient and divergent access to both Z- or E-vinyl thioethers from the same set of simple starting materials.
