Abstract
The unprecedented radical beta-elimination of vinylsulfoxides opens a new a ccess to functionalized di- and trisubstituted allenes. The radical precurs ors are obtained in two steps from a carbonyl derivative and a vinylsulfoxi de. The radical translocation trick can also be used to trigger the beta-el imination of the sulfinyl radical. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All right s reserved.
