Evidence for a Michael addition of a nucleophile to alkenyl(phenyl)iodonium salts at the Cβ atom is reported here for the first time. Nucleophilic vinylic substitutions of (Z)-(β-chloroalkenyl)- 2b and (Z)-(β-bromoalkenyl)iodonium tetrafluoroborates 3b with sodium benzenesulfinate in THF afforded stereoselectively (Z)-1,2-bis(benzenesulfonyl)alkene 5b with retention of configuration. Intermediate formation of (Z)-(β-(benzenesulfonyl)alkenyl)iodonium salt 9b in these reactions was established by 1H NMR experiments in CDCl3. The formation of (Z)-9b involves a hitherto unobserved Michael addition of benzenesulfinate anion to the alkenyliodonium salts at the Cβ atom, followed by halogen extrusion. The formation of a stereoisomeric mixture of (Z)- and (E)-bis-sulfones 5b, and 1-(benzenesulfonyl)cyclopentene 11 that was observed in the reaction of (Z)-(β-fluoroalkenyl)-iodonium salt 4b in CDCl3, strongly suggests the intermediacy of 9b in this nucleophilic vinylic substitution.
