    Abstract

    Reaction of the title sulfone (1) with benzyl iodide at -78°C in the presence of LiHMDS and using THF/DMPU as solvent affords a chromatographically separable mixture of the compounds 2-5 in a combined yield of 42%. These products have been subjected to comprehensive spectroscopic characterization and the structures of products 2 and 5 established through single-crystal X-ray analyses.
