Dithio- and Thionoesters, 63 [1] Bis(alkylthio)stilbenes by Reductive Dimerisation of Aryldithiocarboxylic Acid Esters

Reaction of o- and p-alkyl substituted dithiobenzoic esters 5 with LDA and methyl iodide lead to the formation of the 1,2-bis(methylthio)stilbenes 9/10 and 16 by reductive dimerisation. The p-methyl dithiobenzoic ester 15b, however, suffers a Claisen condensation with lithium hexamethyldisalazane to yield the stilbene derivative 17. Even the o-methyldithiobenzoic acid 19 is reductively dimerized by LDA giving after methylation a mixture of the stilbenes 9a/10a and 20.
