Abstract: | Abstract 3H-Benzo1,2]-dithiole-3-thiones were prepared from potassium sulfide and 2-halobenzaldehydes in moderate-to-good yields, and a plausible mechanism for this catalyst-free intramolecular heteroannulation reaction has been proposed. The Knoevenagel condensation reactions of 3H-benzo1,2]dithiole-3-thiones with active methylene compounds such as ethyl 2-cyanoacetate and diethyl malonate, and the three-component one-pot reactions of potassium sulfide, 2-halobenzaldehydes, and ethyl 2-cyanoacetate, affording the corresponding products, have been developed.
