Abstract
Highly diastereoselective Claisen rearrangements of acyclic allyl vinyl ethers bearing a chiral sulfoxide at C-5 provide γ-δ-unsaturated aldehydes or ketones with up to two consecutive asymmetric centers in the molecule whilst preserving a useful vinyl sulfoxide. The reactivity of related vinyl sulfides and sulfones has also been examined in this work.
