Abstract

Benzenesulfenamides and benzeneselenenamides reacted with terminal and internal acetylenes (hex-1-yne, phenylacetylene, hex-3-yne, but-2-yne-1,4-diol, and diphenylacetylene) in the presence of SnCl4 to give the corresponding chloroethenyl sulfides and selenides. From symmetric acetylenes, only E isomers (E)-ArXCR=CClR (X = S, Ar = Ph, 4-ClC6H4; R = Et, Ph, HOCH2; X = Se, Ar = Ph, R = Et) were formed. The reactions of benzenesulfenamide with terminal acetylenes, apart from the corresponding Markownikoff and anti-Markownikoff adducts (PhSCH=CClR and PhSCR=CHCl, R = Bu, Ph) gave ethynyl sulfides PhSC=CR (R = Ph, Bu) and cis/trans-isomeric 1,2-bis(phenylsulfanyl)chloroethenes PhSCR=CClSPh (R = Ph, Bu). The results were interpreted assuming intermediate generation of sulfenyl and selenenyl chlorides via reaction of sulfen-and selenenamides with SnCl4.
