Novel Behavior of Thiiranium Radical Cation Intermediates. Reactions of Dimethyl Disulfide with Alkenes in the Presence of Pd(OAc)2

Reaction of dimethyl disulfide (1) with cyclohexene (2a) in AcOH in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 yields trans-1-acetoxy-2-methylcyclohexane (3a). The equivalent reactions with hex-1-ene (2b) and 2-methylpent-1-ene (2c) or 1-methylcyclohex-1-ene (2d) preferentially give anti-Markovnikov and Markovnikov a...
