, p. 1917 - 1921 (1994)
The rapid alkylation of ethyl phenylmercapto-acetate with a series of halides was performed in 650W domestic microwave oven to yield the alkylated products in 58 to 83%.

Treatment of ethyl 2-(pyridin-2-ylsulfonyl)hexanoate with tributylstannane and azobis(2-methyl-2-propanitrile) (AIBN) in benzene at reflux for 36 h resulted in hydrogenolysis to give ethyl hexanoate (60%), whereas no reaction was observed after 48 h at reflux with ethyl 2-(phenylsulfonyl)-hexanoate. Ethyl 2-(pyrimidin-2-ylsulfonyl)hexanoate underwent quantitative hydrogenolysis within 1 h under these conditions. This represents a mild new methodology for removal of the synthetically useful sulfone moiety. Substitution of Bu3SnD for Bu3SnH gave access to α-deuterium-labeled esters. Treatment of the α-(pyrimidin-2-ylsulfonyl) enolates derived from several esters with Selectfluor gave high yields of the 2-fluoro-2-(pyrimidin-2-ylsulfonyl)alkanoates, which were smoothly desulfonylated [Bu3SnH (2 equiv)/AIBN/benzene/Δ] to give 2-fluoroalkanoates. "Catalytic" tin hydride, generated from tribuytltin chloride (0.15 equiv) and excess polymethylhydrosiloxane in the presence of potassium fluoride, also effected removal of the π-deficient α-(pyrimidin-2-ylsulfonyl) moiety from acid derivatives in high yields. Desulfonylation is suggested to proceed via alkoxy ketyl-type radicals and tin enolates.
