Abstract

In 1981, Uguen reported the successful reaction of anions of sulfones substituted by a primary alkyl or allylic group with trialkylboranes, for the preparation of secondary alcohols. 5 This is of great interest since various sulfones can be easily prepared. 6 In order to broaden further the scope of this method, we envisioned to combine it with the thermal isomerization of organoboranes, 2., , and which allows a boron atom to migrate along a chain of carbon ...
