Besides ordinary halides and sulfonic acid esters, the development of transition metal catalyzed processes has enabled allylic alcohols, acetates, carbonates, vinyl epoxides and vinyllactones also to be successfully employed as allylic substrates. 

Allyl sulfones formed from allyl sulfinates (cf. equation 1) can easily tautomerize to give a, /J-unsaturated sulfones26 in cases for which R1, R2 are part of an (hetero) aromatic system, this tautomerization occurs spontaneously. Similarly, sulfinic acid esters from jV-phenylhydroxamic acids as reactive intermediates rearrange to give o-(major part) and p-sulfonylanilines (minor part)27 ... 

Alkyl sulfates, tosylates, and other esters of sulfuric and sulfonic acids can be converted to alkyl halides with any of the four halide ions.979 Neopentyl tosylate reacts with Cl, Br, or I without rearrangement in HMPA.980 Similarly, allylic tosylates can be converted to chlorides without allylic rearrangement by reaction with LiCl in the same solvent.981 Inorganic esters are intermediates in the conversion of alcohols to alkyl halides with SOCl2, PC15, PC13, etc. (0-67), but are seldom isolated.

Propargylic Anion Equivalent. (TMS)allene reacts with electrophiles at the C-3 position in an Se2 process analogous to electrophilic substitution reactions of allyl- andpropargylsilanes. For example, upon treatment with trimethylsilyl chlorosulfonate or sulfur trioxide-1,4-dioxane, (TMS)allene yields silyl esters of sulfonic acids (eq 3). (TMS)allene undergoes conjugate addition with a, 8-unsaturated acyl cyanides to yield 5,e-acetylenic acyl cyanides. ... 

Sulfur Chemistry - Two facile methods of the heretofore difficult sulfoxide to sulfide reduction have been accomplished with dilsobutyl aluminum hydride and dichloroborane in THF at 0 . With the latter reagent, ketones, esters, and amides remain unaffected. A review on sulfoximes and derivatives as synthetic reagents presents some new methods for the preparation of various oxiranes, aziridines, alcohols, cyclopropanes, and alkenesAllylic sulfoxide anions have proven useful for the synthesis of ally lie alcohols, including trisubstltuted olefinic allylic alcohols. Transesterification between a dialkylacylphosphonate and a sulfonic acid yields sulfonate esters. The oxidation of aliphatic mercaptans to sul-finio acids with the use of m-chloroperbenzoic acid is especially useful in that the excess perbenzolc acid is removed by precipitation at -80. ...

Esters of allylic alcohols with resin-bound carboxylic acids can be converted into allyl palladium complexes, which react with carbon nucleophiles and with hydride sources to yield the formally reduced allyl derivatives (Entries 3 and 4, Table 3.47). Alkyl sulfonates have been reduced to alkanes with NaBH4 (Entry 5, Table 3.47). Aryl sulfonates (Entry 6, Table 3.47) and aryl perfluoroalkylsulfonates [814] can be reduced to alkanes by treatment with catalytic amounts of Pd(II) and formic acid as a hydride source. 

The regiochemistry of this allylic substitution is determined primarily by steric factors.9 Substitution occurs from the less hindered side of allylic complex 22. This behavior is typical for attack by soft nucleophiles. Soft nucleophiles are distinguished by the fact that their charge can be stabilized by resonance. Examples include not only sulfones but also nitriles, nitro compounds, ketones, and esters of carboxylic acids. 

The at complex from DIB AH and butyllithium is a selective reducing agent.16 It is used tor the 1,2-reduction of acyclic and cyclic enones. Esters and lactones are reduced at room temperature to alcohols, and at -78 C to alcohols and aldehydes. Acid chlorides are rapidly reduced with excess reagent at -78 C to alcohols, but a mixture of alcohols, aldehydes, and acid chlorides results from use of an equimolar amount of reagent at -78 C. Acid anhydrides are reduced at -78 C to alcohols and carboxylic acids. Carboxylic acids and both primary and secondary amides are inert at room temperature, whereas tertiary amides (as in the present case) are reduced between 0 C and room temperature to aldehydes. The at complex rapidly reduces primary alkyl, benzylic, and allylic bromides, while tertiary alkyl and aryl halides are inert. Epoxides are reduced exclusively to the more highly substituted alcohols. Disulfides lead to thiols, but both sulfoxides and sulfones are inert. Moreover, this at complex from DIBAH and butyllithium is able to reduce ketones selectively in the presence of esters. 

The alkylation products are synthetically useful because simple subsequent transformations furnishes precursors of important natural products as illustrated in Scheme 8E.23. Simple oxidative cleavage of allylic phthalimide 45 generates protected (5)-2-aminopimelic acid, whose dipeptide derivatives have shown antibiotic activity. The esterification via deracemization protocol is not limited to the use of bulky pivalic acid. The alkylation with sterically less hindered propionic acid also occurs with high enantioselectivity to give allylic ester 116, which has been utilized as an intermediate towards the antitumor agent phyllanthocin and the insect sex excitant periplanone. Dihydroxylation of the enantiopure allylic sulfone gives diol 117 with complete diastereoselectivity. Upon further transformation, the structurally versatile y-hydroxy-a,(f-un-saturated sulfone 118 is readily obtained enantiomerically pure.
