Regioselectivity in the Thiylation Reactions of Tri- and Tetrahalogen 2(5H)-Furanone Derivatives
摘要
Abstract
In this work, tri- and tetrahalogen derivatives of 2(5H)-furanone were synthesized and the regioselectivity of their reactions with sulfur-containing nucleophiles was studied. It was shown that reactions of furanones possessing halogen atoms at the vinylic and saturated carbon atoms with 4-methylthiophenol and 2-mercaptoethanol in the presence of Et3N proceed regiospecifically with the formation of nucleophilic substitution products at the vinylic carbon atom C4 of the lactone ring. Using ethane-1,2-dithiol, novel bis-thioethers of furanone and a sulfur fused bicycle of the 2,3-dihydro[1,4]dithiino[2,3-c]furan-5(7H)-one series were obtained.
