Abstract
Thirty-five substituted bis(propargyloxy) disulfides were successfully prepared in good to excellent yields, and their reactivity was found to be strongly dependent on the substitution pattern of the reactant. Inter alia they undergo surprising tandem sigmatropic rearrangements and cycloadditions. Three heretofore unknown product types were isolated and fully characterized: 6,7-dithiabicyclo[3.1.1]heptan-2-one 6-oxide derivatives, two isomeric 1,2-dithiete 1,1-dioxides (α,β-unsaturated four-membered cyclic thiosulfonates) from bis(propargyloxy) disulfides with α- or γ-alkyl-substituted propargyl groups, and two isomeric 2-oxa-5,7-dithiabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane 5-oxides from bis(propargyloxy) disulfides with α-tert-butyl- or α,α-dialkyl-substituted propargyl groups.
