The reaction of silyl ester of S-acyl(aroyl) thiosalicylic acids 3 with (tr
imethylsilyl)methylenetriphenylphosphorane 4 in step wise fashion leads to
the acylphosphoranes 7, which subsequently undergo intramolecular Wittig cy
clization on the thiolester carbonyl to afford the 4H-1-benzothiopyran-4-on
es 8 in good to excellent yields. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights
