Abstract
The direct conversion of lactones into thiolactones with elemental sulfur (S8) catalyzed by InCl3/PhSiH3 in a one-pot reaction is described. This catalytic system was successfully applied to the novel preparation of selenolactones from lactones and selenium.

- 17 On the basis of our previous work on in situ generation of a disilathiane derived from S8 and a hydrosilane in the presence of InI3,9 we performed the following control experiment. When adding lactone 1a to the resultant solution consisting of the disilathiane, which was prepared from S8 and PhSiH3 in the presence of 5 mol % of InCl3 under o-DCB reflux conditions (3 h), thiolactone 2a was obtained in an 84% GC yield. The result further supported that a disilathiane is a key intermediate in the series of conversions.
- 18 As the control experiment, when a thionolactone, dihydro-5-phenyl-2(3H)-furanthionone, was treated with only 5 mol% of InCl3, the quantitative formation of thiolactone 1a was observed as well as the result reported by Duñach et al.8b Therefore, there may be a third pathway of the direct conversion of a lactone into a thiolactone via a thionolactone intermediate, besides to our proposed pathways shown in Scheme 5. However, during our investigations we have not found any trace of the corresponding thionolactone intermediate in the cross-over reaction between a γ-lactone and a disilathiane at all.
