The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Rather than proceeding through a Michael-type or 1,4-addition, thioacetic acid adds across unsaturated aldehydes in an autocatalytic manner and involving a double exotherm, as demonstrated by both adiabatic and reaction calorimetry. NMR studies show that an intermediate acyl-thio-hemiacetal is involved and that the product continues to react competitively with thioacetic acid. © 2010 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH&Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
