Abstract

Investigations on the Chemistry of 3-Chloromethyl-3-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiines A series of 3-chloromethyl-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiines 3 were prepared by the reaction of several β-methallylphenylethers 1 with sulfur dichloride. In some cases intermediate sulfenyl chlorides 2 were isolated and characterized as substituted thiazolidin-2-ones. The thermal regioisomerization of selected sulfenyl chlorides and one of the thiazolidinone products was achieved. Starting from 3-chloromethyl-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiine 3o several derivatives were obtained by nucleophilic displacement at the 3-chloromethyl position, activated by S-3-neighboring group partizipation. The structure of the 3-acetoxymethyl derivative was determined by x-ray crystal structure analysis. Further special derivation with selected chiral reagents led to diastereomeric compounds. The separation of the diastereomers by crystallization and chromatography was attempted. HPLC-separation was achieved in one case.
