    Abstract

    A novel class of thiacrown and azacrown ethers incorporating the 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane spiroacetal ring system was prepared by reaction of ditosylate 5 with the appropriate dithiols 9aââ"šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Å“c or protected diamine 12a. Spiroacetal ditosylate 5 in turn, was prepared from diol 3 via ozonolysis of bisallyl ether 7 followed by tosylation of the derived diol 8.
