[摘要]:1,3-Bis(trimethylsilyl) propyl phenyl sulfone undergoes, in contrast to all reported sulfones bearing alpha-hydrogen atoms, an initial ortho metalation to an aryllithium at low temperature, which transmetalates quantitatively to the corresponding alpha-sulfonyl organolithium intermediate. Both organolithiums react selectively with aldehydes to give the corresponding products in good to excellent yields with high selectivity. |
