✦ Synopsis
The chalcogeno-Baylis-Hillman reaction catalyzed by sulfides and selenides, the group 16 element compounds, in the presence of Lewis acids was developed. The reactions proceeded smoothly by the use of 1 equiv of Tic14 to give the coupling products in moderate to good yields.
Bischalcogenides and related compounds were investigated as a catalyst, and 1.5diselenocyclooctane gave the best result owing to stabilization of a cationic intermediate by the transannular interaction.
