Thiobenzophenone and thioacetophenone undergo 1,4-cycloaddition reactions with 1,3-butadiene, isoprene, and chloroprene at room temperature. The reactions with isoprene and chloroprene yield mixtures of two isomers, I and II, the isomer ratios of which have been determined by NMR spectroscopy. The chemical shifts of protons in the NMR spectra of the products and their corresponding sulfones have been assigned. © 1969.
