The cross-coupling reaction of bis-triisopropylsilyl disulfide 1 on alkynes yielded 1,2-bis-triisopropylsilanylsulfanyl-alkenes 2, a new chemical class. A series of tri and tetrasubstituted olefins 2 were prepared and their behavior toward electrophiles was studied. The triisopropylsilyl groups could be readily removed by treatment with TBAF at 0 degreesC for 1 h or cesium acetate at 70 degreesC for 2 h. Soft and hard electrophiles were submitted to 2 under these conditions. The electrophiles can either react to yield double addition products with alkyl and activated halides, epoxides and acyl chlorides or cyclic adducts with chloroformate derivatives. In the latter case, 1,3-dithiol-2-ones or 1,3-dithiol-2-thiones are prepared. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
