Several allyl (both cyclic and acyclic), allenyl, hexenyl and propargy
lcobaloximes react regiospecifically with thiophone-2-sulphonyl chlori
de under thermal and photochemical conditions to give the correspondin
g sulphones. The reaction is believed to take place by the attack of t
he sulphur radical on the terminal carbon of the organocobaloxime with
the displacement of cobaloxime(II).
