Abstract
A selective and high-yield method is described for producing stereoisomeric benzylidene derivatives of the formula III: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently is lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or halogen; Y is SO.sub.2, SO or CO; --A-- is optionally substituted lower alkylene; --B-- is --CH.sub.2 -- or --O--; or --A-- and --B-- taken together may form optionally substituted phenylene or optionally substituted lower alkenylene; and R is hydrogen, optionally substituted lower alkyl, cycloalkyl, lower alkoxy, hydroxy, optionally substituted aryl, optionally substituted arylalkyl; optionally substituted arylalkyloxy, heterocyclic ring or N-protecting groups, which comprises reacting a compound of the formula I: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined above and X is lower alkoxy or halogen with a compound of the formula II: ##STR3## wherein Y, --A--, --B-- and R are as defined above in the presence of a base.
