Due to the chemoselective dehalogenation by SmI 2 , the addition of α‐halomethylsulfones to carbonyl compounds afforded β‐hydroxysulfones. Those reactions with α‐bromomethylsulfones gave the products in moderate to good yields. The SmI 2 ‐mediated addition of gem ‐dihalomethylsulfones to ketones also afforded α‐halo‐β‐hydroxysulfones in moderate yields.
