ChemInform Abstract: Preparation and Thermal Decomposition of 7,8-Dimethyl-3,3,3-triphenyl- and 3,3,3,7,8-Pentamethyl-1,5-dihydro-2,4,3-benzodithiastibepin.
Abstract
The bismercaptomethylbenzene (I) reacts with trimethyl- or triphenyldichlorostiborane (II) or with the corresponding dialkoxystiborane, prepared in situ from (II) and alkoxides, to give the benzodithiastibepins (III).
