A stereoselective synthesis of (E)-vinyl sulfones has been developed via electrochemical oxidative N-S bond cleavage of aromatic sulfonylhydrazides, followed by cross-coupling reactions with cinnamic acids to form the C-S bond. The protocol proceeded smoothly to afford (E)-vinyl sulfones in good yields with wide substrate scope under metal-free and halogen-free conditions.
