Power transfer: The title reaction proceeds under mild conditions (room temperature, short reaction times) and directly affords sulfoniumylidesfrom active methylene compounds and heteroaromatics in a single step and in high yields. A detailed comparative structural analysis of a variety of ylides is presented and the implications of structure on the reactivity of these compounds are discussed.
The development of a direct ylide transfer to carbonyl derivatives and of a sulfoxide-mediated arylation is presented from a unified perspective. Mechanistic studies (including density functional calculations) support a common reaction pathway and showcase how subtle changes in reactant properties can lead to disparate and seemingly unrelated reaction outcomes.

An unusual cleavage of the non-ylidic carbon-sulfurbond of a sulfonium ylide is reported. The reaction can be catalysed by a variety of palladium(II) complexes under mild conditions. Preliminary results show that coordination of the ylide to the metal center results in significant structural changes.
