| Abstract: | A general method for the synthesis of α‐substituted vinyl sulfones makes use of a combination of a triazole gold complex and gallium triflate. This efficient C? S bond formation between simple terminal alkynes and sulfinic acids provides access to various α‐substituted vinyl sulfones. |
