Abstract

Tetrathiocin 1 and the tetramer 2 could be synthesized oxidatively from ethenedithiolate and were successfully characterized. Compound 2 with its cage structure can be considered as a new type of host molecule. It also forms from 1, which has a twisted structure, in acetonitrile/chloroform.
