A practical access to allylic sulphones and lactones from allylic nitro compounds

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Allylic nitro derivatives can be readily solvolysed in aqueous acetic acid to give allylic sulphones in the presence of a sulphinate salt or allylic lactones if the substrate contains a suitably located ester group.
