A number of groups that do not participate in SN2 displacement processes are able to function as leaving groups in electron-transfer chain reactions at room temperature; such groups include azide, sulfone, ethers, nitro, quaternary ammonium ions, esters, and thioethers.Even carbanions are able to function as leaving groups as can be seen from fragmentation of carbon-carbon bonds.

Alkylations and halogenations of sulfones normally requiring the use of strong bases such as butyl lithium are shown to proceed smoothly and in good to excellent yield using sodium hydroxide in N,N-dimethylformamide.
Electron-Transfer Chain-Substitution Reactions of Ambident Anions
Kornblum, Nathan,Ackermann, Peter,Swiger, R. T.
, p. 5294 - 5298 (2007/10/02)
A simple explanation is proposed for the fact that electron-transfer chain-substitution reactions involving ambident anions give only one of the two possible products and experimental evidence which supports this hypothesis is presented.
