Abstract
In the presence of dichlorotris(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II) p-toluenesulfonyl chloride was found to react with styrenes under mild reaction conditions to give alkenyl sulfones in good yields. The reaction was highly regio- and stereoselective and formed only β-hydrogen-substituted (E)-isomers.
