Abstract :
Boron trifluoride and indium(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate were found to efficiently catalyse the isomerisation of thionolactones to thiolactones in good yields. When applied to an optically active γ-thionolactone, the isomerisation reaction proceeded with a complete inversion of configuration by using BF3·Et2O.
