Simple synthesis of β-hydroxysulfones using polysorbate-80 as phase transfer catalyst

A very easy and practical method for the preparation of β-hydroxysulfones has been developed by ring opening of oxirane using polysorbate-80 as phase transfer catalyst.

Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) 4000 Catalysed Regioselective Nucleophilic Ring Opening of Oxiranes - A New And Convenient Synthesis of β-Hydroxy Sulfone and β-Hydroxy Sulfide

Oxiranes and sodium p-toluene sulfinate salt react smoothly in a regioselective manner in the presence of PEG4000 to furnish β-hydroxy sulfone and β-hydroxysulfide.The reaction was extended for the preparation of alkylsulfones and β-oxosulfones from alkylhalide and β-oxohalide respectively.

Regioselective ring opening of oxiranes catalysed by montmorillonite clay: A simple synthesis of β-hydroxy sulfones

Oxiranes and sodium p-toluene sulfinate salt react smoothly in a regioselective manner in the presence of montmorillonite clay to furnish the corresponding β-hydroxy sulfones in good to excellent yield.

Preparation and Stereochemistry of Methylation of Some Cycloalkyl Sulfones

3-((4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl)cyclohexanols (2, 3), 3-((4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl)cyclopentanols (7, 8), and 2-((4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl)cyclopentanols (12, 15) and their tetrahydropyranyl ether derivatives were prepared.Attempted methylation of the tetrahydr
