AbstractA Synthesis of vitamin A has been achieved by alkylating a β‐ionylidene‐ethyl (C15) aromatic sulfone with 1‐acetoxy‐3‐chlormethyl‐2‐butene (C5) followed by elimination of the corresponding sulfinic acid.
A Pd-catalyzed ring-opening sulfonylation of gem-difluorocyclopropanes is reported. This protocol involves C-C bond cleavage, β-F elimination, and allylic coupling to form corresponding 2-fluoroallylic sulfones efficiently with Z-selectivity. Different substrates bearing diverse functional groups are tolerated. Moreover, this method is successfully used for the late-stage derivation of several bioactive
The first molybdenum-catalyzedallylic sulfonylation of tertiary allylic electrophiles is described. The method employs a readily accessible catalyst (Mo(CO)6/2,2′-bipyridine, both are commercially available) and represents the first example of the use of a group 6 transition metal-catalyst for allylic sulfonylation of substituted tertiary allylic electrophiles to form carbon–sulfur bonds.

Herein, we report an indirect trifluoromethylthiolation of sodium arylsulfinates. This transition-metal-free reaction significantly provides an environmentally friendly and practical synthetic method for aryl trifluoromethyl thioethers using commercial Ruppert–Prakash reagent TMSCF3. This approach is also a potential alternative to the current industrial production method owing to facile substrates
heterogeneous palladium-catalyzed sulfonylation of vinylcyclic carbonates with sodium sulfinates via decarboxylative cross-coupling. Both aliphatic and aromatic sulfinate salts react with various vinylcyclic carbonates to deliver the desired allylic sulfones featuring tri- and even tetrasubstituted olefin scaffolds in high yields with excellent selectivity. The process needs only 2 mol% of Pd2(dba)3 and
nucleophile was developed. The reaction utilizes inexpensive and readily available (CH3CN)3W(CO)3 as a precatalyst and proceeds at 60 °C temperature in the presence of 2,2′-bipyridine and its derivatives as ligand. The synthetic utility of allylic sulfones as electrophile was further demonstrated through Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling as showcased by the formal synthesis of (±)-hinokiresinol.
