Treatment of 1-chloroalkyl phenyl sulfoxides with a Grignard reagent at low temperature gave magnesium carbenoids in quantitative yields. The generated magnesium carbenoids were found to be stable at lower than -60°C for long periods of time and are reactive with Grignard reagents to give alkylated products. The reaction of the generated magnesium carbenoids with various kinds of lithium α-sulfonyl carbanions gave olefins with carbon-carbon bond-formation in good to high yields. This method offers a good way for the preparation of olefins. The scope and limitations of the above-mentioned reactions are described.
