Grignard reagents undergo Michael addition to vinylic sulfones.With a β-β-disubstituted vinylic sulfone an unexpected dimer is obtained.Under nickel catalysis methyl, aryl and alkenyl Grignard reagents displace the sulfonyl group of the readily available α,β-unsaturated sulfones.Methyl, resp. phenyl substituted olefins or conjugated dienes are formed.Under appropriate conditions the reaction proceeds with complete retention of configuration.
