Participants

Reaction Steps

Dimethyl 2-(1,3-dihydro-1-oxo-3-thioxo-2H-isoindol-2-yl) -pentanedioate (208) and Dimethyl 2-(1,3-dihydro-1,3-dithioxo-2H-isoindol-2-yl)-pentanedioate (209). A mixture of compound 207 (144 mg, 0.47 mmol) and LR (191 mg, 0.47 mmol) in toluene was stirred in a 110° C. oil bath for 10 h. The solvent was then evaporated and the residue was purified by column chromatography, (silica gel) using CH2Cl2 as the eluent, to obtain compound 209 (17 mg, 11%) as a dark red oil. Thereafter, using CH2Cl2:EtOAc (10:1) as the eluent the more polar component 208 (105 mg, 70%) was obtained as a red oil.
