3‐[(Trimethylsilylmethylamino)(methylthio)]methylene‐2‐coumaranone ( 4a ) and 1‐methyloxindole ( 4b ), readily prepared by reactions of the corresponding bis(methylthio)methylene heterocyclic compounds ( 2a, b ), with (trimethylsilylmethyl)amine (3), were found to be synthetic equivalents of heterocyclic alkylidene‐azomethine ylides. Reactions of 4a, b with reactive heterodipolarophiles such as aldehydes and ketones and reactive alkenes in the presence of cesium fluoride gave the 1,3‐dipolar cycloadducts, 3‐(2‐oxazoli‐dinylidene)‐oxindole and ‐coumaran‐2‐one derivatives ( 8a‐j, 9a‐h ), as well as pyrrolylidenecoumaran‐2‐one and oxindole derivatives ( 12‐15,17,18 ), via the 1,3‐elimination of (methylthio)trimethylsilane.
