Abstract

The inexpensive starting material, 1,1-dichloroethylene, was used as a substitute for 1,2-dichloroethylene to synthesize unsaturated thiacrown ethers through the reaction of 1,1-dichloroethylene with sodium sulfide in the presence of a 15-crown-5 catalyst. Besides the compounds containing cis-carbon-carbon double bonds, two unsaturated thiacrown ethers each containing one trans-carbon-carbon double bond were also isolated.

Key words

unsaturated thiacrown ether - 1,1-dichloroethylene - economical approach - macrocyclic compounds - hydrogen anion transfer
