2-Sulfinyl- and 2-sulfonylallenecarboxylates, as new 1,1-diacceptor substituted allenes, were prepared starting from methyl 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentynoate by a [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement. The sulfoxides could be reduced to the corresponding allenyl sulfides. A 2(5H)-furanone derivative was prepared by a side-reaction.
