RESUMO
A novel arylation of sulfonamides with boronic acids to afford numerous diaryl sulfones via a visible light-mediated N-S bond cleavage other than the typical transition-metal-catalyzed C(O)-N bond activation is described. This methodology, which represents the first catalyst-free protocol for the sulfonylation of boronic acids, is characterized by its simple reaction conditions, good functional group tolerance and high efficiency. Several successful examples for the late-stage functionalization of diverse sulfonamides indicate the high potential utility of this method in pharmaceutical science and organic synthesis.
RESUMO
This work describes a base-mediated borylsilylation of benzylic ammonium salts to synthesize geminal silylboronates bearing benzylic proton under mild reaction conditions. Deaminative silylation of aryl ammonium salts was also achieved in the presence of LiOtBu. This strategy which is featured with high efficiency, mild reaction conditions, and good functional group tolerance provides efficient routes for late-stage functionalization of amines.
