Attempted free radical rearrangement of the para-toluenesulfonyl ester of 4-penten-1-ol in carbon tetrachloride gives only the simple Kharash 1,2-adduct, instead of the 2-substituted tetrahydrofuran as claimed by Serra and da Silva Correa.

Treatment of the para -toluenesulfonyl iodide adducts of a series of I-substituted 5-hexenols with K[N(TMS)2]] gave 2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans with excellent cis-diastereoselectivity. The corresponding pentenols gave the 2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans as 1:1 cis:trans mixtures.
A Stereoselective Approach to 2,6-Disubstituted Tetrahydropyrans by Conjugate Addition Reactions of Vinyl Sulfones

, p. 1318 - 1320 (2007/10/03)
A highly stereoselective synthesis of cis-2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans from functionalised 5-hexen-1-ols has been developed. Free radical addition of para-toluenesulfonyl iodide to the hexenol and DBU-mediated elimination of HI from the intermediate β-iodosulfones gives vinyl sulfones: subsequent conjugate addition of the potassium alkoxide leads to a highly stereoselective (≥30:1) cyclisation.
