Reaction of 1-(phenylseleno)-2-(trimethylsilyl)ethene 1 and methyl or ethyl 2-p-toluene- or benzene-sulfonylacrylates 3 in the presence of SnCl4 at -78°C gave sulfone-substituted cyclopropanes 4 as single stereoisomers. The structure of one of these crystalline cyclopropane products was elucidated by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The relative stereochemistry of the cyclopropane ring carbon (C2) and selenosilylmethyl group was determined as R,R and S,S, which is consistent with previous mechanical considerations and the NOE determination. 2-Sulfinyl acrylate 2 did not undergo this cycloaddition. The difference in reactivity of the sulfoxide 2 and sulfones 3 toward 1 was explained by comparison of LUMO levels of 2-SnCl4 and 3-SnCl4 complexes and activation energies in the synclinal addition of 1 to the complexes.

The C-alkylation reactions of arylsulfonylacetic esters with alkyl halides in DMFA in the presence of alkali with the reagents in ratios of 1:1.3:1.3 and 1:2.3:2.3 respectively give high yields of the esters of monoalkyl- and dialkyl-substituted arylsulfo
