Abstract: 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene was prepared by coupling 2-bromo-3-methylcyclohexanone with 2-methylbenzenethiol and annulating the product with the aid of polyphosphoric acid. A mixture of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene and 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene was prepared by coupling 2-bromo-3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one with 2-methylbenzenethiol and annulating the product with the aid of polyphosphoric acid. 2-Bromo-3-methylcyclohexanone was synthesized by conjugate addition of Me3Al to 2-bromocyclohex-2-en-1-one with CuBr as catalyst and 2-bromo-3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one by bromination-elimination of 3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one. 1,2,3,4,4a,9b-Hexahydro-4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene was prepared by reduction of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene with Zn and CF3COOH.
