Substituted 1,3,5-hexatrienes 7 can be prepared in excellent yields and with good stereoselectivity from diallylic sulfones 6 employing a modified Ramberg–Bäcklund reaction.

Studies into the use of samarium diiodide (SmI2) in the reductive elimination of 1,2-acetoxy sulfones and the reductive cleavage of vinyl sulfones are reported. Parallel investigations with sodium/mercury amalgam (Na/Hg) revealed over-reduction in several cases in which the desired products were heavily conjugated or conjugated to an aromatic moiety. A mechanistic study revealed some of the intricacies of the SmI2-promoted Julia-Lythgoe olefination. The classical Na/Hg reductive method was also examined, and an alternative mechanism is proposed. Observations described herein provide important insights into the mechanism and synthetic utility of these methods. The optimum protocol developed utilizes SmI2 reduction of vinyl sulfones in the presence of DMPU and MeOH and gives generally high yields with good to excellent E stereoselectivity.

Lithiation with n-butyllithium of a variety of benzotriazole derivatives 1a-f and 5a-d, all containing a proton alpha to the benzotriazolyl moiety, gave anions which underwent addition to aliphatic, aromatic, and alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes and cyclic and acyclic ketones. The resultant N-(beta-hydroxyalkyl)benzotriazole derivatives 3a-m, 6a-g, 9a-d, and 10a were dehydroxybenzotriazolylated when treated with low-valent titanium to give alkenes 4a-m, dienes 7a-j, and triene 11a, with selectivity for the trans isomers without separation of diastereoisomeric intermediates. This method offers an alternative to the three most frequently used methods for the formation of alkenes from carbonyl compounds-the Wittig, Peterson, and Julia reactions-especially in the formation of tri- and tetrasubstituted alkenes.
