Experimental and Theoretical Analysis of the Thiol-Promoted Fragmentation of 2-Halo-3-tosyl-oxanorbornadienes
2-Halo-3-tosyl-oxanorbornadienes are able to accept two thiol molecules through an initial nucleophilic substitution, giving isolable oxabicyclic thiovinyl sulfones that, subsequently, can react with a second thiol molecule via thio-Michael addition. The resulting oxanorbornenic…
