ABSTRACT
Selectively producing a variety of valuable compounds using controlled chemical reactions starting from a common material is an appealing yet complex concept. Herein, a photocatalytic approach for the selective synthesis of (E)-ß-aminovinyl sulfones and (E)-ß-amidovinyl sulfones from allenamides and sodium sulfinates was established. This reaction exhibits the traits of an eco-friendly solvent and adjustable amide cleavage, and can accommodate a diverse range of substrates with exceptional functional group tolerance. Based on control experiments and deuterium labeling experiments, a plausible radical reaction pathway is proposed.
ABSTRACT
This study presents a convenient approach to the synthesis of indole- and benzofuran-based benzylic sulfones using unactivated alkynes containing aryl iodides and sodium sulfinates under visible light irradiation. The procedure involves a sequential series of dehalogenation, carbo-cyclization, and radical sulfonylation. Plausible insights into the reaction mechanism are derived from control experiments, leading to the proposal of a radical cascade reaction pathway.
ABSTRACT
An atom-economic method of preparing allylic sulfones via hydrosulfonylation of allenes with sulfinic acids under Pd(0)-catalysis was reported. This process has a high degree of regio- and stereoselectivity, and provides the target product with a moderate to excellent yield. A wide range of nitrogen- or oxygen-containing linear E-allylic sulfones have been synthesized. With the support of experimental research, a possible mechanism was proposed.
ABSTRACT
A new and expedient photocatalytic protocol for the construction of quinolin-2(1H)-ones via Markovnikov-type sulfonylation/6-endo-trig cyclization/selective C(O)-CF3 bond cleavage starting from N-alkyl-N-(2-ethynylphenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamides and sulfinic acids has been developed. It is as an unprecedented protocol for the preparation of 4-sulfonylquinoline-2(1H)-ones with high efficiency, mild reaction conditions, acceptable yields and a wide range of substrates.

A new catalytic difluorohydration of ß-alkynyl ketones using NFSI as the fluorinating reagent has been established, diastereoselectively furnishing a range of structurally diverse difluoride 1,5-dicarbonyl products through C(sp3)-H fluorination. Notably, the sterically encumbered t-butyl functionality located at the α-position of the carbonyl group of substrates 1 showed excellent diastereoselectivity (up to >99 : 1 dr). The reaction enabled multiple bond-forming events including two C(sp3)-F formation through Ag-catalysis to provide a highly efficient and practical method toward difluoride 1,5-dicarbonyls, some of which were successfully converted into difluorinated isoquinolines.
ABSTRACT
There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(15)H(10)ClNO(2), which differ in the dihedral angles between the mean planes of the phenyl ring and the 4-chloro-indoline-2,3-dione ring system [59.48â (9) and 79.0â (1)°]. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked through C-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds, forming polymeric chains in [100].
