Stereochemically controlled synthesis of substituted 1,2-oxathianes

Abstract

Treatment of a series of 4-sulfanyl-1,3-diols with toluene-p-sulfonyl chloride and triethylamine in dichloromethane gives substituted 1,2-oxathianes as single diastereoisomers in high yield by cyclisation with formation of a S–O bond. The cyclisation occurs efficiently and the fate of each stereogenic centre (four in all) of the newly formed oxathiane ring is investigated.
