Dinitrosulfodienes of the Thiolene 1,1-Dioxide Series in Electron-transfer Reactions

Conjugated Nitrodienes. Synthesis and Reactivity

“…161 Interaction with aromatic thiols occurred in a different way: they were oxidized to disulfides, while 1,4dinitrodiene 393 led to 1-nitrodiene 395. Treatment of 393 with sodium methoxide and subsequent acidification with acetic or hydrochloric acid afforded 162 1,1-dioxide 396 (Scheme 107).…”
