Abstract
The reaction of 2,2‐oxydiethanethiol and 2‐[2‐mercaptoethyl) thio] ethanethiol with dichloroglyoxime (DCGO) in absolute EtOH led to crown compounds, oxadithia (5Z,6Z)‐1,4,7‐oxadithiadiononane‐5,6‐dionedioxime (1) and trithia (2Z,3Z)‐1,4,7‐trithionane‐2,3‐dionedioxime (2), respectively. The compounds 5,6,8,9‐tetrahydro [1,4,7]oxadithionine[5,6‐c][1,2,5]oxadiazole (3) and 5,6,8,9‐tetrahydro[1,4,7]trithionino[2,3‐c][1,2,5]oxadiazole (4) were prepared by dehydration of 1 and 2 in aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide at 170–180°C, respectively.
