title: 1-Hydroxymethyl-4-phenylsulfonybutadiene, a versatile building block for the synthesis of 2,3,4-trisusbtituted tetrahydrothiophenes.
abstract: A method to synthesize chiral 2,3,4-trisusbtituted tetrahydrothiophenes in both enantiomerically pure forms starting from 1-hydroxymethyl-4-phenylsulfonylbutadiene is described.
