Abstract

Abstract: Several a, a-dichloromethyl sulfones have been subjected to treatment with various bases in an attempt to elucidate the possible mechanistic pathways involved in the ensuing rearrangement. In particular, the selection of sulfones was designed to allow an examination of the possible generation and fate of monosubstituted thiirene dioxides and spirochloro episulfones, two intermediates anticipated from earlier results. The Ramberg-Backlund ...
