Formation of a zwitterionic enolate from tetramethylthiourea and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate
Formation of a zwitterionic enolate from tetramethylthiourea and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate
A zwitterionic tetrahydrothiophen-3-one derivative containing the enolate of a -keto ester located in the ring and a tetramethylamidinium group in a side chain is formed from tetramethylthiourea and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate by a surprising rearrangement reaction. Low-temperature X-ray crystallography shows weak intramolecular coordination of an enolate O atom by the amidinium group (OC: 2.608 angstrom) and also a 1,5 SO short contact (2.706 angstrom) due to electron delocalisation in a cis-sulfanylacrylate grouping

Abstract
A zwitterionic tetrahydrothiophen-3-one derivative containing the enolate of a -keto ester located in the ring and a tetramethylamidinium group in a side chain is formed from tetramethylthiourea and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate by a surprising rearrangement reaction. Low-temperature X-ray crystallography shows weak intramolecular coordination of an enolate O atom by the amidinium group (OC: 2.608 angstrom) and also a 1,5 SO short contact (2.706 angstrom) due to electron delocalisation in a cis-sulfanylacrylate grouping
