C-alkylation reactions of phenylsulphonylnitromethane. A convenient new α-nitro-sulphone synthesis

Abstract
Phenylsulphonylnitromethane (1) is C-alkylated by benzylic halides and primary alkyl iodides affording α-nitro-sulphones in 43–75% yield; α-nitro-sulphones (83–90% yield) are also obtained from the corresponding C-alkylation of allylic acetates in the presence of catalytic Pd(PPh3)4.
