A combination of o-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) and a catalytic amount of iodine is found to promote a facile one-pot deacylative sulfonylation reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with sodium sulfinates to yield β-carbonyl sulfones. The present method provides the target products bearing a wide variety of functional groups in one step and in good yields.Mahidol UniversityChemical EngineeringChemistryArticleSCOPUS10.1055/s-0036-1588900
