The Reaction of Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds with “Activated” Sulfur. Part 3.¹ Reaction Course

Abstract

A reaction course of the process which starts from (2E,4E)-1,5-diphenyl-2,4-pentandien-1-one 1 by reaction with sulfur and triethylamine at room temperature and completes to give phenyl(5-phenyl-2-thienyl)methanone 5, is proposed and discussed.
