Page 8, (2010/02/06)
The present invention relates to a process for producing an allyl sulfone derivative represented by the formula (3): wherein Ar is an optionally substituted aryl group, and the corrugated line means either one of E/Z geometrical isomers, or a mixture thereof, which is an intermediate for producing vitamin A, which process is characterized by reacting an aryl sulfinic acid or a salt thereof represented by the formula (2): ArSO2M (2) wherein Ar is as defined above, and M is hydrogen atom, sodium atom or potassium atom, with an allyl halide derivative represented by the formula (1): wherein X is a halogen atom, and Ar and the corrugated line are as defined above.
Ionic Photodissociation of Polyenes via a Highly Polarized Singlet Excited State

Several polyene acetates and polyene methyl ether were prepared.Upon direct excitation these polyenes undergo ionic photodissociation from their singlet excited states.Triplet-sensitization experiments on these polyenes revealed that the ionic photodissociation process is restricted to singlet excited states.The rationale put forward is that the polyene chromophore undergoes charge separation/polarization in the singlet excited state, which leads to ionic photodissociation.
Preparation of (7Z) - and (7Z,11Z) - Vitamin A

An efficient access to (7Z)- and (7Z,11Z)-vitamin A is described. Following the addition of a C6-acetylenic building block to 2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexanone (2), dehydration of the tert. alcohol 3 and formation of the C15-Wittig salt, the (7Z)-geometry was introduced by partial hydrogenation of the triple bond over Raney-nickel. Following Wittig reaction with (E)-2-methyl-4-acetoxy-2-butenal gave a mixture of the title compounds 8 and 9 which could easily be separated.
