A series of pentafluorosulfanyl-substituted dienes has been synthesized
from 3-pentafluorosulfanyl-prop-2-enal employing either Grignard
reactions with subsequent dehydration or by oxidation
of 1-pentafluorosulfanyl-alk-1-en-3-ols to the corresponding ketones
and subsequent Wittig-type olefinations.
