An Easy Formation of Dithioacetals on Alumina-KF Under Microwave Irradiation. Synthesis of new Potential Antiviral Phosphonates

Abstract
The preparation of dithioacetals by the reaction of methylene compounds with S-methyl methanesulfonothioate on Al2O3-KF is described. Microwave irradiation without solvent provides a powerful activation. Potential antiviral phosphonates are prepared.
