Dimethylsulfoniummethylide undergoes S(N)2' addition/1,2-elimination with epoxy vinylsulfones to generate enantiopure six and seven membered cross-conjugated hydroxy vinylsulfones. Moderate to excellent yields were obtained for both six and seven membered substrates.

Methods have been developed for regio- and stereoselective 1,4-syn or 1,4-anti methylation of seven-membered epoxyvinylsulfones. 1,4-Syn addition is achieved via the combination of Me2Zn and catalytic Li2CuCl4, a hitherto unexplored reagent combination. The complementary 1,4-anti addition relies on Cu(I) catalyzed methyl Grignard addition or (CH3)(3)Al assisted CH3Cu addition. The methods described were assayed on four diastereomeric stereodiads and on their parent epoxide.

Enantiopure epoxyvinyl sulfones SS-9a, SS-9b, produced from Jacobsen epoxidation of 2-phenylsulfonyl 1,3-cyclohexa- and cycloheptadiene, are used as a template for the construction of substituted cycloalkenones and as chiral synthetic equivalents of enones a and b. The addition of carbon nucleophiles to SS-9a, SS-9b is high yielding and stereospecific. Enantiopure alpha,beta- and gamma-substituted cycloalkenones are easily constructed using a variety of methods.

The synthesis of C1-C20 and C15-C27 segments of Aplyronine A is described. Oxidative cleavage of cyclic vinyl sulfones has been used to prepare key fragments of Aplyronine A. Key precursors are united by Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons and Julia-Kociensky olefination for the respective elaboration of the C1-C20 and C15-C27 segments.

Functionalized cyclic vinyl sulfones were directly converted to the "polarity reversed" vinyl phosphonates through an efficient one pot procedure. Ozonolysis of these vinyl sulfones and vinyl phosphonates furnish complementary sets of termini-differentiated ester-aldehydes. This strategy has been applied for preparation of segments needed for the synthesis of Aplyronine A. The scope and limitations of this transformation were defined.
