The Synthesis of 2H-Thiopyranes from ß-Thioxoaldehydes [4+2]-Cycloaddition reactions between enaminothioketones and activated alkenes, which are described by Quiniou et al.,1-4 usually require relatively harsh reaction conditions, and produce the title compounds only in moderate yields. Much better results can be achieved by a new synthesis of 3-acyl-2H-thiopyranes starting with dicyclohexylammonium salts of monothio-ß-dicarbonyl compounds and unsaturated aldehydes or ketones. The mechanism of this new reaction is characterized by Michael addition followed by an aldol reaction.
