This work describes the 6-endo-dig cyclization of S-aryl propargyl sulfides to afford 2H-thiochromenes. The substitution at the propargylic position plays a crucial role in allowing intramolecular silver-catalyzed alkyne hydroarylation and N-iodosuccinimide-promoted iodoarylation. Additionally, a PTSA-catalyzed thiolation reaction of propargylic alcohols was developed to synthesize the required tertiary S-aryl propargyl ethers. The applicability of merging these two methods is demonstrated by synthesizing the retinoic acid receptor antagonist AGN194310.
