Abstract
Summary: Functionalized alkyl groups have been introduced regioselectively into the ortho position of phenols via [2, 3] sigmatropic rearrangement of isopropylphenoxysulfonium alkylide, providing a quite efficient synthesis of precursors for chromans, chromens, coumarins, and da-tocopherol.
