Abstract

Abstract The 2-thiomethylbenzofuran derivatives 3 are conveniently prepared in good yields through the reactions between the readily available 2-methylene-2, 3-dihydrobenzofuran-3- ols 1 and the thiol derivatives 2 (including alkyl thiols, thiophenol, and thioacetic acid). The allylic substitution process may be either acid-catalysed or promoted by radical initiators. In the first case, the reactions are carried out at 90 C in 1, 2-dimethoxyethane (DME) as the ...
