(α-Alkyl-α-methylthio)alkyl p-tolyl sulfones derived from the reaction of a-alkylated alkyl p-tolyl sulfones with dimethyl disulfide could be easily hydrolyzed by CuCl2-SiO2 to give the corresponding ketones in fairly good yields.This method was applied to the synthesis of Douglas Fir Tussock Moth Pheromone.
