Michael-type additions of phenylsulphinylacetate esters to αβ-unsaturated ketones produce cyclohexane-1,3-dione derivatives, which, after thermal elimination of benzenesulphenic acid, give the corresponding 5-substituted resorcinols, such as olivetol.The scope of this entry into other aromatic systems, such as 3,5-disubstituted and 2,3,5-trisubstituted phenols and orsellinic acid has been explored.
