Abstract
AbstractThe synthesis of the reagent 2,2‐bis(trimethylsilyl)‐1,3‐dithiane was directly achieved in an excellent yield from 1,3‐dithiane in one step. The bench‐stable reagent can be utilized for Peterson olefinations using either TMSOK/Bu4NCl or fluoride ion as promoter of α‐silyl carbanion formation, thereby generating ketene dithioacetals, which are versatile intermediates in organic synthesis. Olefination reactions were successfully achieved with aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic aldehydes and ketones.
