Abstract

The intramolecular Pummerer rearrangement of 2-(2-alkyl-sulfinylphenyl)- 2-propanols (1a, 1c-1g) yielded 1,3-oxathianes (2a, 2c-2g) in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid and molecular sieves 3A. Alkyl halides were converted into 1,3-oxathiane derivatives in three steps via this rearrangement.
