Abstract
In an efficient transition-metal-free synthesis of sulfones, a broad range of alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl sodium sulfinates react with varyingly substituted o-silyl aryl triflates as aryne precursors under mild reaction conditions to afford structurally diverse sulfones in good to excellent yields.
