A new method for C–C coupling of terminal alkenes via a sulphonylation–alkylation–desulphinylation sequence: synthesis of E- and Z-α-bisabolenes

Abstract
A new method for regiospecific C–C coupling of terminal alkenes based on a sulphonylation–alkylation–desulphinylation process, mediated through allylic sulphinic acids, and its application to the conversion of limonene into E- and Z-α-bisabolenes, are described.
