Abstract

ChemInform Abstract Alkoxy arylsulfonyl carbenes such as (II) are generated by α-elimination of hydrogen halide from (alkoxy)(halo)methyl aryl sulfones such as (I). Their self-decomposition as well as trapping reactions with diazoalkanes, e.g. (VIII), and with appropriate olefins, e.g. (X) are studied.
