✦ Synopsis
AIBN-initiated radical reactions of 5-membered cyclic xanthates, 1,3-oxathiolane-2-thiones, with tributyltin hydride are described. Alkenes are formed at 0.025 M concentration of tributyltin hydride, whereas a higher concentration (0.25 M ) gives 1,3-oxathiolanes. A mixture of alkene and 1,3-0xathiolane is obtained by use of intermediate concentrations. Reactions of cisand tran~-4,5-dialkyl-I,3-oxathiolane-2-thiones with tributyltin hydride afford E-alkenes stereoselectively. For an application of this alkene formation reaction, geraniol has been converted to linalool silyl ether in good vield.
