Abstract

Cyclocondensation reactions of sulfur-containing dienes, such as 3-arylthio-1-silyloxy-1,3-butadienes and 4-arylthio-1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes, with various dielectrophiles and dieneophiles allow for a convenient synthesis of a variety of functionalized and sterically encumbered aryl-substituted sulfides and sulfones which are not readily available by other methods. The building block strategy outlined herein is advantageous for the synthesis of highly substituted, sterically encumbered and functionalized molecules compared to methods which rely on the formation of a carbon-sulfur bond.
