✦ Synopsis


According to the generally held view the AdE-reaction of sulfenyl halides with alkenes proceeds via intermediate formation of episulfonium ions /I/. One of the peculiar features of this reaction is the preferential formation of anti-Markovnikov's adducts for the additions to unsymmetrical alkenes. Thus for the addition of RSHal to propene ('l, R=H), or 2-methylpropene ('l, R=CH3) the ratio of M:aM/2/ was found to be:
