Cu(II)-CatalyzedCoupling of Unactivated Alkenes withSodium Sulfinates for Allylic Sulfones

Abstract We describe a catalytic method for preparing allylic sulfones from unactivated alkenes with sodium sulfinates via a directed, copper(II)-catalyzed sulfonylation process. This transformation exhibits a broad scope, accommodating diverse 3-butenoic acids containing interna...
