Abstract4-(Dimethylamino)thiopivalophenone was prepared from 4-bromo-N,N-dimethylaniline, pivalonitrile and carbon disulfide. Its crystal and molecular structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The experimentally determined bond distances, bond angles and torsion angles are indicative of a significant contribution of a dipolar (“quinodimethane”) resonance structure to the electron distribution in the molecule. Quantum chemical calculations corroborate these results. The calculations, furthermore, provide an explanation of the arrangement of the molecules in the crystal.

Derivatives of (diphenylmethylene-amino) acetic acid 1-3 react in the presence of bases (NaH, t-BuONa) or under phase transfer conditions with carbon disulfide to give the corresponding ketene dithioacetals 4-11 after alkylation. Phenyl isothiocyanate and dicyclohexyl carbodiimide give rise to ketene-S,N- and N,N-acetals. Methyl 2-(diphenylmethyleneamino)-2-(1,3-dithiane-2-ylidene) acetate (7) was characterized by an X-ray structure determination. The compound has a 2-aza-1,3-butadiene fragment containing two well localized double bonds. The C=N-C=C group is significantly non-planar, the relevant torsion angle amounts to -103.5(3)°.
