Allylic sulfones have been found to undergo a thermal rearrangement accompanied by loss of sulfur dioxide to give olefinic products. Thus, when allyl benzyl sulfone is heated at a temperature of 215, 4-phenyl-1-butene and sulfur dioxide are ob-tained as products. This reaction provides a novel method for lengthening carbon chains. The mechanism of the reaction is discussed.Although there is considerable information on thermal reactions and rearrangements of allylic compounds in general, relatively little can be found regarding allylic sulfones. Allylic sulfones were the subject of one earlier study2to determine whether thermal rearrangement to the correspond-ing sulfinic esters occurred. No rearrangement was detected and in fact it was noted that one of
