1-Hydroxymethyl-4-phenylsulfonybutadiene, a versatile building block for the synthesis of 2,3,4-trisusbtituted tetrahydrothiophenes

Molecules. 2004 Apr 30;9(5):323-9. doi: 10.3390/90500323.

Abstract

A method to synthesize chiral 2,3,4-trisusbtituted tetrahydrothiophenes in both enantiomerically pure forms starting from 1-hydroxymethyl-4-phenylsulfonylbutadiene is described.
