Abstract
Abstract (Z)-2-Methoxy-1-phenylthio-1,3-butadienes which are substituted with an alkyl group at the 4-position are not preparable by copper(I)-induced elimination of thiophenol from 4-alkyl-2-methoxy-1,1-bis(phenylthio)-3-alkenes; a 2-step stereospecific synthesis of one such diene ( 18 ) is described.
