from solutions in hexane on a Hewlett–Packard 8453
spectrophotometer. The molecular weights and ele-
mental compositions were determined from the high-
resolution mass spectra (electron impact, 70 eV) which
were obtained on a DFS instrument (ion source tem-
perature 110°C). Gas chromatographic–mass spectro-
metric analysis was performed on a Hewlett–Packard
G1801A GC–MS system consisting of an HP 5890
Series II gas chromatograph and an HP 5971 mass-
selective detector (electron impact, 70eV; HP-5 capil-
lary column, 30 m×0.25 mm, stationary phase 5% of
diphenyl- and 95% of dimethylpolysiloxane copoly-
mer; carrier gas helium, flow rate 1ml/min; oven tem-
perature 50–280°C; ion source temperature 173°C).
The melting points were determined on a Kofler
melting point apparatus.

Allyl polyfluoroaryl sulfones IIIa–IIIe (general
procedure). A glass ampule was charged under argon
with polyfluoroarenesulfonyl bromide Ia–Ie and allyl
bromide II. The ampule was heated for 25 h at 145–
155°C on an oil bath and cooled to room temperature.
The reaction mixture was dissolved in ~10 ml of
methylene chloride, and the solvent and unreacted allyl
bromide were distilled off under reduced pressure. The
residue was a dark solid containing (according to the
1H NMR data) allyl polyfluoroaryl sulfone IIIa–IIIe
and 1,2,3-tribromopropane (IV) at a ratio of ~1:1. The
structure of compound IV was confirmed by compar-
ing the 1H NMR spectrum of the reaction mixture with
the spectrum of an authentic sample of IV [14] pre-
pared as described in [15]. Tribromopropane IV was
removed by washing with hexane (3×10 ml), and the
crude product was purified by vacuum sublimation at
80–100°C (2 mm).

(Ic) with 2.89 g (23.89 mmol) of allyl bromide (II)
gave 2.34 g of a mixture of allyl sulfone IIIc and com-
pound IV. Yield of IIIc 84%. By washing with hexane
(3×10 ml) we isolated 0.81 g of individual compound
