Description
Summary:1,5,3,7-Dithiadiazocanes, 1,5,3,7-diselenadiazocanes, and 1,5,3,7-ditelluradiazocanes were prepared from a primary amine, formalin, and H2S, NaSeH, or NaTeH, respectively. Oxidation of 1,5,3,7-diselenadiazocanes and 1,5,3,7-ditelluradiazocanes using NBS efficiently afforded 1,2,4-diselenazolidines or 1,2,4-ditellurazolidines, respectively. In contrast, treatment of 1,5,3,7-dithiadiazocanes with bromine-elemental sulfur or disulfur dichloride (S2Cl2) afforded 1,2,3,4,5,7-pentathiazocanes. An unusual oxidative conversion of 1,5,3,7-dichalcogenadiazocanes into these products was assumed to proceed through in situ formation of 1,5,3,7-dichalcogenadiazabicyclo[3.3.0]octane-type dications.
