Abstract

One-pot’ tandem reactions of commercially available 1,4-dithiane-2,5-diol (the dimer of mercaptoacetaldehyde)
with electrophilic alkenes resulted in the facile formation of substituted tetrahydrothiophene
derivatives. Thus, sulfa-Michael/Henry and sulfa-Michael/aldol sequences provided polysubstituted
tetrahydrothiophenes using in situ generated nitroalkenes and a,b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds as
the electrophilic partners of mercaptoacetaldehyde dimer, respectively.
