The ambident behaviour of sulfur in terms of its ability to stabi1ize adjacent negative and positive charge at carbon has made this element a focal point for new reagents and reactions (1). For this reason our concern has focused on the synthesis of new phosphonates containing sulfur and selenium and the exploration of their application in synthetic and stereochemical studies. It was found (2,3) that the best synthetic approach to phosphonates containing sulfur and selenium in the α-position is ba­ sed on the reaction of elemental sulfur and selenium with a-phosphonate carbanions. It is interesting to note that, in contrast to sulfur, selenium may be added in this way to the tertiary car­ bon atom.

In an extension of this work a new route to unsaturated six­ -membered sulfur heterocycles 1 has been investigated which consists in the internal Horner-Wittig reaction of the appropriate α­ phosphoryl sulfoxides or sulfones 2 prepared as shown in Scheme I. Thus, the sodium salts of α-phosphoryl thiols 3 |R=H (a) R=Me (b)| were reacted with ethylene ketal of 5-chloro-pentanone-2 in ethanol solution under ref1ux to give the corresponding condensa­ tion products 4 in high yields (80-90%). Their oxidation followed by deblocking of the carbonyl group afforded sulfoxides 2,a,b and sulfones 2,c,d which on treatment with n-butyllithium were conver­ ted into the desired unsaturated thian-S-oxides or S-dioxides 1. 0097-6156/81/0171-0055$05.00/0 © 1981 American Chemical Society In Phosphorus Chemistry; Quin, L., et al.; ACS Symposium Series; American Chemical Society: Washington, DC, 1981.
