A two-step and high-yield method for the synthesis of Ξ±-thio aldehydes from aldehydes with one-carbon elongation is realized by using chloromethyl phenyl sulfoxide as a one-carbon homologating agent. The Ξ±-thio aldehydes are easily converted to desulfurized alcohols with Bu 3 SnH and AIBN in refluxi

β¦ Synopsis
Haloalkenes are interesting cumpuunds in organic chctnistry.l In particular, tluoroalkenes have received much attcntivn as non-hydrolizable amide ii;oslers. 2 Recently. we reported a new synthesis nf tr-halo kerones from aldehydes and l-halo&y1 aryl sulfoxides via erhyhnagnesium bromide mediated dcsulfinylntinn of n-halo fi-ketn sulfoxides 3 This reaction was proved to take place by the attack of a carbanion to the sulfinyl group (ligand exchange reaction of sulfoxide4).
We thought that a similar reaction would take place with a-halo P-mesyloxy sulfoxides 2. In this paper, we report the n-B&i medialed desulfinylation of *-halo fi-mesyloxy sulfoxides 2, easily derived from 1 and aldehydes, giving fluoroalkenes 3 (X=F) and chloroalkenes 3 (X=Cl) in high yields (Scheme I).
