Abstract
Mild and efficient synthesis of phenyl (α-fluoro)vinyl sulfones via condensation of aldehydes and a ketone with a novel benzothiazolyl based bis-sulfone reagent is reported and this proceeds with moderate to good Z -stereoselectivity.
Key words
fluorination - olefination - Julia - fluorovinyl sulfones - benzothiazole

21 In a typical experiment, to a mixture of aldehyde (1 mol equiv), bis-sulfone 3 (1.3 mol equiv) and anhyd MgBr2 (1.8 mol equiv) in anhyd THF (5 mL per mmol of aldehyde), a solution of DBU (3.9 mol equiv) in anhyd THF (5 mL per mmol of aldehyde) was added. The mixture was stirred at r.t., until the disappearance of the aldehyde was observed by TLC. Aqueous NH4 Cl was added and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×). The organic layer was washed with H2 O and brine, dried over anhyd Na2 SO4 and the solvent was evaporated.
