Attempts to Synthesize a Thiirane, Selenirane, and Thiirene by Dealkylation of Chalcogeniranium and Thiirenium Salts

Abstract: Thiiranium salts [Ad2SR]+X− (5, 8, 9, 11, 12; X−=Tf2N− (Tf=CF3SO2), SbCl6−) and seleniranium salts [Ad2SeR]+X− (14, 16, 17, 23–25; X−=Tf2N−, BF4−, CHB11Cl11−, SbCl6−) are synthesized from strained alkene bis(adamantylidene) (1). The disulfides and the diselenides (Me3SiCH2CH2E)2 (4, 13), (tBuMe2SiCH2CH2E)2 (7, 22), and (NCCH2CH2E)2 (10, 15; E=S, Se) have been used. The thiirenium salts [tBu2C2SR]+X− (34) and [Ad2C2SR]+X− (35, 36) are prepared from the bis‐tert‐butylacetylene (2) and bis‐adamantyl‐acetylene (3)… Show more

“…The strong antiaromaticity calculated here for thiirene may explain the recent failure by Poleschner and Seppelt to synthesize this molecule by dealkylation from a thiirenium ion. [ 54 ] In addition, though there are crystal structures of the saturated analogs (e.g., thiirane or chloriranium ion), [ 54,55 ] there are no reports in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) of these unsaturated species likely due to their moderate to very strong antiaromatic nature. [ 56 ]…”

[56] Hyperconjugative aromaticity refers to molecules in which the filled π C=C orbital interacts with the σ* orbital(s) of exo-cyclic substituents on the heteroatom via hyperconjugation to create a pseudo 2π electron aromatic system (Figure 2).…”
