1-(3-(2-hydroxyethylsulfonyl)-5-methoxy-4-propoxybenzaldehyde (54) (FIG. 24) (0.88 g,2.91 mmole), 1-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-1,2-ethanedithiol (39) (FIG. 19) (0.947 g, 3.64 mmole) and 0.365 g of pyridinium para-toluene sulfonate was added to 120 ml dry benzene and refluxed with Dean-Stark removal of the benzene- water azeotrope for 24 hours. The benzene was removed in vacuo, and the remaining oil redissolved in dichloromethane. The organic layer was washed with 10% NaHCO3 and H2O. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, and evaporated in vacuo to an oil which was purified by flash column chromatography with 1:1 hex/ethyl acetate as eluent. The product mixture (white foam) contains a 1.0/1.0 cis/trans ratio (1.254 g, 79%).
