Abstract
The reactions of 3,4-di-t-butyl-1-[(p-tolyl)sulfonylimino]-1,1-dihydrothiophene with RONa and RSNa furnished 2-alkoxy- and 2-alkylthio-substituted thiophenes, respectively, through Michael adduct formation. The reaction of 3,4-di-t-butylthiophene 1-oxide with RSNa gave 1,6-Michael adducts, whereas the corresponding reaction of 3,4-di-t-butylthiophene 1,1-dioxide produced a mixture of 1,4- and 1,6-adducts.
