| Application: | Thiophenol can undergo: • Asymmetric Michael addition to diisopropyl maleate in the presence of a catalytic amount of cinchonine to form (s)-(−)-diisopropyl phenylthiosuccinate, which can be further converted to (R)-(+)-3,4-epoxy-1-butanol. • Regioselective and stereoselective 1,4-addition to alkenylidenecyclopropanes leading to endo- or cis-vinyl sulfide adducts, a key step in the synthesis of karahanaenone. • Diastereoselective addition to (S)-N-(α,β-unsaturated carbonyl)-γ-[(trityloxy)m |
| General description: | Thiophenol is an organosulfur compound used as an intermediate to produce polymers. |
