Abstract
Reaction of 1,1-diphenyl-propane-1,3-diol with thionyl-chloride gave a product, which was identified by X-ray analysis as 3,3-diphenyl-1,2-oxathiolane-2,2-dioxide. The compound crystallizes at room temperature in the monoclinic space group Pt/n with a = 8.888, b = 11.460, c = 12.895 A, β = 96.51° and Z = 4. The structure was solved using direct methods and difference Fourier techniques and refined by block-diagonal least-squares to a final R-value of 4.8%. Spectral data (IR, NMR) and a possible reaction mechanism are discussed.
