3-alkoxy-2-en-1-ones has been reported. 25 I have also recently studied the synthesis<br />

<strong>of</strong> 5-chloroethyl-2-(arylthio)benzoates by TiCl4-mediated domino ′[3+3] cyclization /<br />

homo-Michael′ reaction <strong>of</strong> 3-arylthio-1-trimethylsilyloxy-1,3-butadienes with 1,1diacylcyclopropanes.<br />

26 Herein, I provide a full account <strong>of</strong> this work. In addition, I<br />

report a comprehensive study related to the formal [3+3] cyclization <strong>of</strong> 3-arylthio-1trimethylsilyloxy-1,3-butadienes<br />

with 3-silyloxy-2-en-1-ones. The reactions reported<br />

provide a convenient approach to substituted 2-(arylthio)benzoates and<br />

thioxanthones which are not readily available by other methods.<br />

1.2 Result and Discussions.<br />

The reaction <strong>of</strong> β-ketoesters 1a-c with various thiophenols gave, following the<br />

procedure reported by Chan et al., 22,23 the 3-(arylthio)alkanoates 2a-k (Scheme 1).<br />

Deprotonation <strong>of</strong> 2a-k (LDA) and subsequent addition <strong>of</strong> Me3SiCl afforded, again<br />

following the procedure reported by Chan et al., 22,23 the 3-arylthio-1-silyloxy-1,3butadienes<br />

3a-m. The synthesis <strong>of</strong> 2a and 3a has been previously reported. Dienes<br />

3a-m proved to be unstable and had to be <strong>used</strong> directly after their preparation.<br />
