Cycloadditions of bicyclobutanes with two- or three-atom reaction partners have been widely exploited to access bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes and bicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes. However, their application the synthesis bicyclo[4.1.1]octane derivatives has remained elusive. Herein, we report silver-catalyzed formal (4+3) cycloadditions between simple benzodithioloimines, establishing a new method for synthesizing previously inaccessible 2,5-dithia-bicyclo[4.1.1]octanes, which two sulfur atoms in frameworks. This mild tolerates bicyclobutane substrates wide range substituents. The synthetic utility this was demonstrated via various transformations products yield valuable sulfur-containing bridged bicyclic scaffolds.

Amide and alkene moieties are frequently found in natural products privileged structures pharmaceuticals agrochemicals. Moreover, vinyl sulfoxonium ylide can be converted into a broad range of high-value compounds, thus they have been widely employed organic synthesis. However, the synthesis alkene-substituted amide-sulfoxonium ylides via intermolecular hydrocarbonation alkynes remains underexplored. This study describes development high-throughput approach to provide diverse functionalized E-alkene substituted (hetero)amide-sulfoxonium ylides. The reaction occurs under mild metal-free conditions, employing as highly effective nucleophiles, which participate Michael addition reactions with various alkynes, such esters, thioesters, ketones, amides, sulfones. low-cost, operationally simple has substrate scope, high functional group compatibility, excellent regio- stereoselectivity, making it suitable for transformation structurally complex molecules. Furthermore, obtained stabilized directly useful valuable 1,5-dicarbonyl thiabenzene 1-oxide compounds.
