Li-X-type zeolite mediated Michael addition of thiols to cyclic enones and its application in the synthesis of 13-thiaprostaglandins
Michael addition of various thiols to cyclic enones in presence of Li-X-type zeolite has been described. 13-Thiaprostaglandins have been synthesized in good yields using substituted hydroxycyclopentenone as the Michael acceptor and arylthiols as Michael donors.
