The sulfoxide-metal exchange reaction of β-acetoxy sulfoxides or β-mesyloxy sulfoxides, which were derived from alkenyl aryl sulfoxides and aldehydes in two steps, with a Grignard reagent or alkyllithium at low temperature gave allenes in good yields. Optically active allenes were synthesized starting from optically active 2-substituted ethenyl p-tolyl sulfoxides. A synthesis of (-)-methyl (E)-2,4,5-tetradecatrienoate, a male bean weevil sex attractant, was realized by this method.

High asymmetric inductions (>94/6) are obtained upon DIBAL reduction of β-ketosulfoxides in the presence of non-stoichiometric amounts of ZnCl2 (0.5 equiv. to 0.05 equiv.).Intramolecular hydride transfer and new chelated models are proposed to explain the
REDUCTION OF β-HYDROXYSULFOXIDES: APPLICATION TO THE SYNTHESIS OF OPTICALLY ACTIVE EPOXIDES

β-hydroxysulfoxides of opposite stereochemistry can be prepared in very high diastereoisomeric excesses (90 to 95 percent) by reduction of β-ketosulfoxides with DIBAL or DIBAL/ZnCl2.A very efficient method to transform these reduction products into optically active epoxides is also described.
