Abstract
Abstract A new protocol for the direct sulfonylation of benzylic, allylic and homoallylic alcohols with sodium arenesulfinates is described by using iron (III) chloride as a catalyst and chlorotrimethylsilane as an additive. This method requires no preactivation of alcohols. Surprisingly in the reaction with homoallyl alcohols nucleophilic addition of sulfinate anion, occurs at the terminal double bond instead of nucleophic substitution at the alcohol.
