G. Esteban et al., A CONVENIENT PROCEDURE FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF 2,3-DIHYDRO-1,4-DITHIAPHENANTHRENE DERIVATIVES, Heterocycles, 45(10), 1997, pp. 1921-1927
A convenient method for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1,4-dithiaphenant
hrene derivatives starting from S,S-acetals of tetralones is described
. A feasible mechanism for this transformation is also proposed.
