thermodynamically-stable isomers is negligible. On the other hand, the palladium-catalyzed sulfonylation of allylic acetates with sodium benzenesulfinate is accompanied by the isomerization to give the thermodynamically-controlled products selectively. These results can be explained by assuming that allylic nitro compounds are more reactive to the palladium catalyst than allylic acetates and sulfones.
Allylicnitrocompounds are directly converted into allylsulphides or allylsulphones with high regioselectivity on treatment with sodium benzenethiolate alone or with sodium benzenesulphinate in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(PPh3)4.

Allylicnitrocompounds undergo denitro-sulfonylation catalyzed by Pd(PPh3)4 or Pd(PPh3)4 +NaNO2 with PhSO2Na·2H2O to afford allylic sulfones regioselectively.
