- Regio- and Stereoselective Synthesis of Sulfur-Bearing Four-Membered Heterocycles: Direct Access to 2,4-Disubstituted Thietane 1-Oxides
-
Starting from readily available C2-substituted thietane 1-oxides, a straightforward synthesis of new C2,C4-disubstituted thietane 1-oxides has been developed by using a lithiation/electrophilic trapping sequence. The chemical and configurational stability of lithiated C2-substituted thietane 1-oxides has been investigated as well as the stereochemical implications for this process. The results demonstrate that a stereoselective functionalization at the C2, C4 positions of a thietane is feasible, leaving intact the four-membered ring.

- Synthesis of 2-alkyl(aryl)thietanes
-
Thietane and its 2-substituted derivatives were synthesized. A general preparation procedure for the synthesis of thietanes bearing alkyl and aryl substituents in the α-position was developed. Using this procedure, 2-substituted thietanes can be obtained from cheap and easily accessible raw materials in three steps. 2-R-Thietanes (where R = H, CH3, C 4H9, C5H11, C6H 13, C6H5) and the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones were synthesized and examined. Intermediate and by-products of the synthesis were studied. Nauka/Interperiodica 2007.

- Reductive opening of phenyl substituted thiacycloalkanes: New way for sulphur-containing organolithium compounds
-
The reaction of 2-phenyl substituted four, five and six membered thiacycloalkanes (1, 4 and 7) with lithium and a catalytic amount of DTBB (5 mol %) in THF at -78°C leads to the corresponding sulphur-containing benzylic organolithium compounds (2, 5 and 8), which by reaction with different electrophiles [D2O, Me3SiCl, Bu(t)CHO, Me2CO, Et2CO, (CH2)4CO, CO2] followed by hydrolysis with water afford the expected functionalised mercaptans (3, 6 and 9) in a regioselective manner. Some reaction products (3, 6) are cyclised under acidic conditions (85% phosphoric acid) to yield the corresponding homologous substituted sulphur-containing saturated heterocycles (10, 11).

- Preparation of 2-(3-Hydroxyalkylthio)benzoxazoles and their Conversion into Thietanes
-
Reaction of primary or secondary 1,3-diols with dibenzoxazol-2-yl disulfide and tributylphosphine or triphenylphosphine selectively gave 2-(3-hydroxyalkylthio)benzoxazoles which, on treatment with KH, were converted into the corresponding thietanes. 2,2-Dibenzylthietane-1-oxide reacted with silylated purines and pyrimidines in the presence of TMSOTf and ZnI2 to give the corresponding thietane nucleosides in 17-69% yields.
