An unprecedented reactivity of ( E )‐β‐iodovinyl sulfones in the presence of NaOAc is reported. The ( E )‐β‐iodovinyl sulfones were treated with NaOAc in DMSO/H 2 O to yield β‐keto sulfones in moderate to high yields. A novel oxidative difunctionalization of β‐iodovinyl sulfones with thiosulfonates and NaOAc in DMF has been developed. This metal‐free oxosulfenylation is an operationally simple to access a wide range of β‐keto thiosulfones (α‐thioaryl‐β‐keto sulfones) in moderate to high yields. The transformations were reliable at gram‐scale, thus illustrating its efficiency and practicality. A plausible mechanism for the protocol is also proposed.
