- products 16 with complete inversion of configuration [16][17]. Acid catalysed cleavage of a thioether or thioacetate yields tert-thiols 17 in good yield. 1.1.2 Epoxide ring opening SN2 displacements from quaternary electrophiles require specific structural features to avoid competing racemisation
- of the leaving group with a 1,4-benzoquinone derivative, DBBQ (35) being most effective (Scheme 12). Addition of a thiol nucleophile to adduct 32 results in SN2 inversion and isolation of the enantiomerically pure (94:6–99:1 er) tertiary thioether 33 and by-product 34. Highest yields were obtained
- with BtzSH (36) and BoxSH (37). The reaction proceeds well with many hindered substrates incorporating aromatic, alkyl and ester substituents with excellent stereospecificity. Enantiomerically pure thiols can also be made from the product: Aromatic thioether 38 is reduced with lithium aluminium hydride

- enzyme elastase [66]. In Figure 1, the 3-D images of isobutyl chloroformate (1') and isobutyl chlorothioformate (2') are presented. In these figures, it is clear that the isopropyl group is pushed out of the plane due the presence of a carbon atom next to the ether or thioether atom in 1' and 2'. This
- 25.0 °C. In pure methanol and ethanol a dominant association–dissociation (addition–elimination) mechanism, with rate-limiting addition, is believed to be effective in all four substrates. This rate order indicates that the inductive ability of the alkyl thioether group is almost independent of the
- resonance-stabilized carbocation intermediate is more efficient for isopropyl chlorothioformate (5) when compared to 2, as the presence of the additional carbon pushes the isopropyl group out of the plane of the thioether atom in 2' (Figure 1). This opinion is supported by an increase seen in the l/m ratio

- the attack of the amide on the sulfonium ion 1. When the reaction is carried out in toluene, intermediate 1 decomposes into intermediate 2. Thioether 3 is formed by the addition of the amide to intermediate 2. N-(Methylthiomethyl)octanamide (40% yield) was isolated when octanamide was treated with
- DCMT in DMSO. Similarly, N-(1-(methylthio)-2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)benzamide (30% yield) was isolated when benzamide reacted with DCMT and 2-(methylsulfinyl)-1-phenylethanone. Thioether 3 is a good nucleophile and capable to substitute the chloride of CC or DCMT to generate sulfonium salt 5. The amide
- substitutes the thioether of 5 to form methylenebisamides 6. Conclusion In conclusion, we have developed a simple and efficient procedure to produce methylenebisamides in good yield via the reaction of amides with CC- or DCMT-activated DMSO. The procedure reported herein is operationally simple, and requires
