Upon treatment with 2 equiv of PPh3 and DIAD, elimination of SR and OH moieties from 3 affords the corresponding olefins 4 in moderate to good yield. The reaction can be considered an alternative of McMurry coupling of two different carbonyl equivalents. © 2008 American Chemical Society.[SDGs]SDG6Carbonylation; Chemical reactions; Olefins; Chemical equations; Conjugated enynes; Dithioacetals; Dithiolanes; Electrophile; Good yields; Homopropargylic alcohols; Mitsunobu conditions; Synthesis of; Organic polymers; acetal derivative; alcohol derivative; alkene derivative; carbonyl derivative; thiol derivative; article; chemical reaction; chemical structure; elimination reaction; Mitsunobu reaction; quantum yield; reaction analysis; stereospecificity; synthesisElimination of β-thioalkoxy alcohols under Mitsunobu conditions.
