Five- to seven-membered common-sized heterocyclic compounds containing an oxygen, sulfur, or nitrogen were synthesized by the intramolecular condensation of α,ω-hydroxy, mercapto, or amino alkanes, respectively, over halide cluster complexes as a thermally stable molecular solid weak acid catalyst in the gas phase at temperatures ≥150 °C. From ω- mercapto and ω-amino alcohols, cyclic sulfides and amines were obtained, respectively. These unimolecular reactions are thermodynamically and kinetically favored.

The oxidations of alkyl 4-nitrophenyl, and dialkyl, sulfides and sulfoxides by dimethyldioxirane in acetone occur by concerted mechanisms but the sulfides respond differently from the sulfoxides to variation in the alkyl group. The reactions of the sulfides are inhibited by the steric effects of alkyl groups and these predominate over their inductive effects. By contrast, the reactions of these limited sets of sulfoxides are insensitive to alkyl steric effects but there is an indication of steric acceleration when a broader set of sulfoxides is considered. This behaviour is rationalised in terms of the differences in dipolar charge and its solvation between the ground state and transition state for the two types of substrate. The oxidations of cyclic sulfides and sulfoxides also exhibit contrasting behaviour. The reactivity of the sulfides is insensitive to ring strain but is explicable in frontier orbital terms whereas that of the sulfoxides is partly dependent upon the change in ring strain between reactant and product on oxidation, a difference rationalised in terms of the relative positions of the transition states in the reaction coordinates of the two oxidations. The reactivity of 4-, 5- and 6-membered cyclic sulfoxides is also dependent on a ring-size related property of the transition state. Calculations at the B3-LYP/6-31G* level of density functional theory on both ground states and transition states, including simulation of solvation by acetone, strongly support the mechanistic conclusions reached in this and earlier work.

Diethoxytriphenylphosphorane (DTPP) is easily prepared by oxidative addition of triphenylphosphine with diethyl peroxide.DTPP converts a variety of mercaptoalcohols to cyclic sulfides as well as hydroxythioethers.The temperature dependence (+25 --> -25 deg C) of the product distribution has synthetic petential.
