Abstract

Abstract Certain sulfones and sulfoxides are rapidly and conveniently converted to their novel 1, 3-dialkali salts which, in many cases, are stabilized only by the-SO 2-and-SO- groups, respectively. That such species are formed is demonstrated by subsequent synthetically useful double aldol-type condensations and alkylations, and, in a few cases, by deuterations. Profound metallic cation effects are observed in several of the aldol-type ...
