Abstract
The oxidation of substituted 4H-thiopyrans on a rotating platinum disk electrode with a ring in acetonitrile was accomplished for the first time. It was established that the dehydrogenation of both tri- and pentasubstituted thiopyrans proceeds via a scheme involving the successive transfer of an electron, a proton, and an electron (an EPE process); 4H-thiopyrans are oxidized more readily than the corresponding oxygen analogs.
