Abstract

Rhodium-Catalyzed Carbothiolation Reaction of 1-Alkylthio-1-alkynes. -The reaction proceeds with 1,3-butadiynes, 1-decyne or (tert-butylthio)ethyne (X) in the presence of RhH(PPh3)4 and an appropriate phosphine ligand. The C-C bond formation occurs at the less hindered carbon atom of the alkynes with cis-stereochemistry. -(ARISAWA, M.; IGARASHI, Y.; TAGAMI, Y.; YAMAGUCHI*, M.; KABUTO, C.; Tetrahedron Lett. 52 (2011) 8, 920-922, http://dx.
