Intermolecular radical thiophosphination of terminal alkynes with alkylthio- and arylthiophosphines affords 1-thio-2-phosphino-1-alkenes in good yields. The addition reaction proceeds predominantly in an anti fashion to yield E isomers.
Regio‐ and stereoselective addition of a silyl‐substituted alkynyl sulfide to various terminal alkynes proceeds in the presence of a palladium catalyst to give (Z)‐1‐thio‐1,3‐enynes, which are useful building blocks for the synthesis of polysubstituted 1,3‐enynes. Addition to internal alkynes also takes place under solvent‐free conditions (see scheme).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
