The thermolysis of dipropenyl sulfide in a flow-type system in an atmosphere of nitrogen at 450-540 deg C leads to propenethiol, thiophene, methylthiophenes, and 2-ethylthiophene.The formation of the thiophene derivatives results from intramolecular radical cyclization of the initial sulfide.Dimethyl selenide (5-10 mole percent) substantially accelerates the thermolysis of dipropenyl sulfide, and the yield of 2-ethylthiophene at 450-480 deg C is increased appreciably.The high-temperature reactions of di(1-propenyl) sulfide with 2-halogenothiophenes and acetylene confirm that the propenethiol and thiophene derivatives are formed in parallel during the thermolysis of dipropenyl sulfide.
