23. Recently a structural rearrangement, involving C-C bond breaking and forming reactions, was induced by an α-activation process in a dithiolane, the intermediate sulphonium ion being the initiator for a process which resulted in the reformation of the dithiolane ring, K. Konno, S. Maki, S. Sagari, and H. Takayama, Tetrahedron Lett., 1995, 36, 1865.
24. The stereochemistry of additions and cycloadditions to the reactive double bond should be influenced by the adjacent chiral centre.
25. We have observed that the monosulphoxidation of these dithiane systems is highly regioselective. The disulphoxidation of 1,3-dithianes, 1,3-dithiolanes and 1,4-dithiins is highly selective and always gives the trans- dioxide as the major product. V.K. Aggarwal, G. Evans, E. Moya, and J.
