Reaktionsschritte

Utilizing a phase-transfer procedure similar to that described in Example I, phenylsulfonylacetone was reacted with 1,4-dichlorobutene-2 to obtain 1-phenylsulfonyl-1-acetyl-2-vinylcyclopropane. For the reaction, 9.91 grams phenylsulfonylacetone (Parish Chemical Co.) and 6.25 grams 1,4-dichlorobutene-2 were combined in 20 mls sulfolane containing 6.6 grams potassium hydroxide (85%) and 5 mole percent tricaprylylmethylammonium chloride. The reaction mixture was stirred at 35°-40° C. for 31/2 hours. One-hundred mls water was then added to dissolve the white granular precipitate which had formed and the mixture extracted several times with ether. A crude red oil (10.8 grams) was obtained after removal of the ether and further work-up utilizing a Waters Preparatory Liquid Chromatograph 500A equipped with a gel permeation column and operated at a flow rate of 0.1 l/min yielded the cis and trans isomers of 1-phenylsulfonyl-1-acetyl-2-vinylcyclopropane. ##STR18## trans 1-phenylsulfonyl-1-acetyl-2-vinylcyclopropane
