Journal ArticleDOI
Modular Routes to 1,3-Dithian-2-ones and 1,2-Dithiolanes.
Xianzhu Zeng,Samir Z. Zard +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a convergent route to 1,3-dithian-2-ones based on the radical addition of xanthates to alkenes possessing a suitably located (latent) leaving group is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
α-Scission of Sulfonyl Radicals: A Versatile Process for Organic Synthesis
Frederique Bertrand,Frédéric Le Guyader,Lucia Liguori,Gilles Ouvry,Beatrice Quiclet‐Sire,Stephanie Seguin,Samir Z. Zard +6 more
TL;DR: The reversible addition of aliphatic radicals to sulphur dioxide can be exploited to design a variety of tin-free chain reactions, such as radical allylation, vinylation, alkynylation and azidation of various substrates as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Method for the Net Contra‐Thermodynamic Isomerization of Cyclic Trisubstituted Alkenes.
TL;DR: In this paper, double bond isomerization of cycloalkenes is achieved via radical addition of p-chlorothiophenol, oxidation to sulfoxides, and thermal syn-elimination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radical, One-Step Approach to o-Chlorophenyl Thioethers from Xanthates. A Rapid Access to Vinylsilanes.
TL;DR: Aryl thioethers were successfully oxidized to the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfenic acid elimination afforded the corresponding vinyl-silanes as mentioned in this paper, using a one-step procedure conducted under radical conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Divergent Approach to Highly Substituted Benzothiepinones and to 2,3‐Dihydrothieno[2,3‐b]thiopyran‐4‐ones.
TL;DR: A variety of highly functionalized benzothiepinones, including libraries of complex aza-bridged derivatives, and highly functionalised 2,3-dihydrothieno[2,3]-thiopyran-4-ones are prepared by combination of the radical and ionic reactions of xanthates.
