Abstract

The mechanism of nucleophilic addition of ethane-1,2-dithiol to 4-hydroxy-4-methylpent-2-ynenitrile has been studied at the DFT B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. The base-catalyzed reaction involves nucleophilic attack by deprotonated ethane-1,2-dithiol on the ß-carbon atom of the nitrile with formation of intermediate Z-vinylic carbanion which undergoes intramolecular cyclization with closure of 1,3-dithiolane ring. Further transformation of 2-[2-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)-1,3-dithiolan-2-yl]acetonitrile to 6,6-dimethyl-7-oxo-1,4-dithiaspiro[4.4]nonan-8-imine has also been studied.
