The title compound, C(20)H(17)N(3)O(2)S(2), was synthesized by the reaction of 2-(1,5-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl-oxy)acetic acid and thia-zolidine-2-thione. The C-linked benzene ring, N-linked benzene ring and thia-zolidine-2-thione ring are twisted 31.33 (2), 62.87 (1) and 82.71 (2)°, respectively, from the plane of the bridging 1H-pyrazole ring. The phenyl rings are oriented at a dihedral angle...

The [3+2]-cycloaddition of (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane (7) with 9H-fluorene-9-thione (1) at –60°C yields the spirocyclic 2,5-dihydro-5-trimethylsilyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole 10, which eliminates nitrogen at room temperature to give the 1,4-dithiane derivative 13 by dimerization of the intermediate fluorenethione (trimethylsilyl)methanide (11). This thiocarbonyl ylide can be trapped by 1 to give the ...
