Abstract
Cyanosilylation of alpha-butylthioacrolein with trimethylsilyl cyanide occurs as 1,2-addition. Concurrent rapid dimerization of alpha-butylt hioacrolein occurred both in the presence and in the absence of H2PtCl 6 . 6H(2)O as a catalyst to give 5-dibutylthio-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran-2- carbaldehyde, whose cyanosilylation afforded the corresponding cyanohy drin. The latter is prone to retrodiene degradation upon heating.
