Abstract
In the presence of titanium(IV) chloride, the C-C bond-forming reaction of the α-cyanoketene cyclic dithioacetal 1,3-dithiolan-2-ylideneacetonitrile with various aldehydes and ketones afforded multifunctional pentanedinitriles, 3-substituted- or 3,3-disubstituted 2,4-di-1,3-dithiolan-2-ylidenepentanedinitriles, respectively, in good to excellent yields under very mild conditions. A possible mechanism involving consecutive C-C bond formation was proposed.
Key words
carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction - α-cyanoketene cyclic dithioacetal - aldehydes - ketones - 2,4-di-1,3-dithiolan-2-ylidenepentanedinitriles
