Abstract
2-Trimethylsilyl-1,3 -dithiolane, easily obtainable through transthioacetal ization of corresponding silylated acetals, can be efficiently reacted, und er fluoride-ion catalysis, with different organic electrophiles, leading to a general and mild functionalization protocol. This reactivity discloses t he ability of compound 3 to act as a masked dithiolane anion. (C) 2001 Else vier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
