β¦ Synopsis
Radicals formed from the esters of thiohydroxamic acids readily add to electron deficient olefins to give adducts of potential synthetic value in variable yield. In certain cases the added sulphur function is easily eliminated with reformation of olefin.
Functional group manipulation in complexe natural products can often be carried out advantageously using radical reactions 1. We recently reported that the esters of thiohydroxamic acids readily participate in efficient radical chain sequences generating R-COP* radicals which furnish a good source of R* radicals.2 Thus acids can be decarboxylated to nor-hydrocarbons, nor-halides and nor-hydroperoxides and alcohols in high yield (Scheme).
