Abstract
A new synthesis of thioketens is described by the gas-phase thermolysis of the 4- or 5-substituted isothiazoles (1)–(3). It is believed that the reactions may involve thioxocarbenes (8) or thiirens (9) as short-lived intermediates. A scheme for the reaction mechanism is proposed in the light of result of chemical trapping experiments and the activation parameters found.Keywords
