Abstract

2,3-Bis(phenylsulfonyl)-1,3-butadiene was found to react smoothly with diazomethane and diazopropane to give a mixture of 1:1- and 2:1-cycloadducts. Heating the 1:1-cycloadduct at 110°C resulted in loss of nitrogen and formation of mainly phenylsulfonyl-substituted 1,3-dienes. Cycloaddition of 2-phenylsulfinyl-3-phenylsulfonyl-1,3-butadiene with the same diazoalkanes gave only 1:1-cycloadducts which readily extruded nitrogen producing related 1,3-dienes. The regiochemistry of the dipolar cycloaddition is compatible with FMO considerations.
