Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Triphenylphosphine demethylates 2-(methylphenylsulfuranylidene)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1, 3-dione to form methyltriphenylphosphonium 2-(phenylthio)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (IV).

  2. 2.

    Compound (IV) readily undergoes anion-exchange reactions with NaBPh4, MeI, moist SO2 (gas), dry HCl, and Me2SO4.

  3. 3.

    Dimethyl- and dibenzylsulfonium ylides of dimedone are desulfurized and deoxygenated by triphenylphosphine.
