The influence of steric effects on the regio- and stereospecificity of the addition of thiolates to tert-butylacetylene in a proton-donating medium
1977
1.
A method which fully eliminates the competing free-radical reaction was developed for the nucleophilic addition of thiols to alkylacetylenes.
2.
Under purely nucleophilic conditions steric effects substantially affect the regioorieatatioa of a thiolate ion adding to tert-butylacetylene. The proportion of attack at theβ atom, of the C ≡ C bond increases with increase in the volume of the nucleophilic reagent.
3.
Theβ adducts are formed strictly stereospecifically by a nucleophilic mechanism, of 1,2-anti-addition, and steric effects do not affect the stereochemistry of the process.
4.
It was found that the ratio of the regioisomers formed in the reaction of 1-alkynes with thiols and alcohols correlates well with Charton' s steric constants for alkyl groups in the nucleophilic reagent.
