Abstract

The radical-type diaddition of simple aliphatic and aromatic thiols, thiolacetic acid, dialkyldithiophosphoric (phosphorodithioic) acids, 2-mercaptoethanol, mercaptoacetic acid, 2-mercaptopropionic acid, and their esters to allene was studied. In general, such diadditions were found to be better than known metathetical reactions for the large-scale synthesis of trimethylene bis-sulfide compounds, the products of terminal diaddition. The ...
