Abstract

This article presents a full account of intramolecular vinylic substitution reactions of bromoalkenes having an acetylthio moiety, which give sulfur-containing heterocycles such as dihydrothiophene, tetrahydrothiopyran, and 2-alkylidenethietane derivatives. The reaction pathways of the substitution reactions were investigated by theoretical and experimental studies.
