Organosulfides are a common class of structure units in bioactive molecules and functional materials motivating continuous developments of efficient synthetic methods. Herein, we report an electrophilic aryne-activated ring opening protocol of one or two
Laser-Powered Decomposition of Spiroalkanes (n = 2-5)
Fajgar, Radek,Pola, Josef

The laser heating of spiroalkanes (n=2-5) and of their 1,1,2,2-tetradeuterated isotopomers reveals dissimilar modes of their thermal decomposition.Spiropentane decomposes into ethene and propadiene via two competing routes: the direct cleavage and the more important cleavage via intermediary methylenecyclobutane.Spirohexane decomposes through two important concurrent pathways which are the expulsions of ethene from the three-membered ring and a more feasible expulsion of ethene from the four-membered ring.Spiroheptane and spirooctane decompose by a radical-chain mechanism and afford complex mixtures of products; upon addition of propene both compounds rearrange into two cycloalkanes wherein the larger ring of the spiroalkane is preserved and substituted with ethylidene and a vinyl group.
