Abstract

The reaction of 4-methyl-3,4-epoxytetrahydropyran with potassium thiocyanate occurs with expansion of the oxirane ring and leads to 6-methyl-8-amino-3,7-dioxa-9-thiabicyclo[4,3,0]nonane, the formation of which has been proven by the fact that products of its acylation by acid chlorides of 2-R-cinchonic acids are obtained, and also by the formation of Mannich bases when it is treated with formaldehyde and secondary amines.
