Abstract

Homolytic cycloaddition of dithiol 1, derived from trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol, to alkynes induced by Pr3BO2 occurs with 1,6-asymmetric induction to afford predominantly (1S, 6R, 12S)-trans-cyclohexano-fused 12-membered crown thialactones 4a-c. No pronounced diasteroselectivity was found in the corresponding reactions of dithiol 2, derived from cis-1,2-cyclohexanediol.

Homolytic cycloaddition of trans-1,2-bis(mercaptoacetoxy)cyclohexane1 to alkynes 3 occurs with 1,6-asymmetric induction to afford predominantly (1S*, 6R*, 12S*)-trans-cyclohexano-fused" 12-membered crown thialactones
