Selctivity between the two double bonds of the title compound, 2, has been observed for a number of reagents.For example, cycloaddition with cyclopentadiene and anthracene, as well as reduction with molecular hydrogen (under palladium catalysis), took place at the unsubstituted double bond, while cyclohexadiene, α-terpinene and benzenethiol gave reduction (uncatalyzed) at the more substituted bond.The same reactions performed on the related substrate 3,4-bis(phenylsulphonyl)tricyclo2,4>nona-3,7-diene, 3, afforded comparable results, except for the reaction with cyclopentadiene, which resulted in the cycloaddition to the sulphonyl-activated double bond.

cis-1,2-Bis(phenylsulfonyl)ethylene (5) is found to be a reactive acetylene synthon in Diels-Alder reactions since, after cycloaddition to cyclopentadiene, cyclohexadiene, and cycloheptatriene, and reduction with sodium amalgam, the corresponding bicyclodienes (6)-(8) are obtained in good yields.
