Under high pressure conditions, 4‐methylphenyl 1,2‐propadienyl sulfone ( 1 ) and enol ethers ( 6 ) undergo regioselective [2+2] cycloaddition reactions to give (3‐alkoxycyclobutylidene)methyl 4‐methylphenyl sulfones ( 7 ). The cycloaddition reaction has a broad scope with respect to the substituents allowed at the enol ether. The synthetic potential of the obtained cycloadducts is illustrated by a stereoselective addition of dimethylamine to the double bond of 7a and 7b to yield 11a and 11b and by a tertiary amine‐induced double bond isomerisation of 7a and 7b , followed by ring‐opening of the cyclobutene intermediate to yield 1‐alkoxybuta‐1,3‐dienes 12a and 12b .
