- Biomimetic photocatalytic sulfonation of alkenes to access β-ketosulfones with single-atom iron site
-
Biomimetic photocatalysis as an important organic transformation strategy has received increasing attention, with the performances of biomimetic catalysts largely depending on their design. This protocol has been initially used to fabricate a biomimetic photocatalyst of single-atom iron site through coupling carbon nitride with hemin (CNH) for the visible light-promoted sulfonation of alkenes to produce β-ketosulfones with up to 94% yield. The experimental results show that the role of CN in CNH is concentrated on enhancing the separation ability of photogenerated electron pairs and holes to improve the photocatalytic activity and stability. Moreover, the as-prepared photocatalyst of single atom iron can be irradiated under near-infrared light with a satisfactory yield, and is also feasible for the sulfonation reactions of androstenones. Importantly, this biomimetic catalysis-based synthesis system has some merits, namely high catalysis efficiency, favorable recyclability, high turnover number, and excellent functional group tolerance, making it promising for extensive applications in organic transformations for the synthesis of β-ketosulfones to access various bioactive drugs.

- Dioxygen-Triggered Oxosulfonylation/Sulfonylation of Terminal Olefins toward β-Keto Sulfones/Sulfones
-
A dioxygen-triggered oxosulfonylation/sulfonylation of unactivated olefins to achieve β-keto sulfones/sulfones has been developed. Interestingly, pluralistic mechanisms were found when different types of compounds were applied as substrates, and different products were achieved. The reaction is carried out with a high atomic efficiency in the absence of a metal and a catalyst at room temperature under an air atmosphere. Importantly, as a proof-of-concept, a bioactive molecule was synthesized on a gram-scale level using this method.

- Photosensitizer-free synthesis of β-keto sulfones: Via visible-light-induced oxysulfonylation of alkenes with sulfonic acids
-
A practical and environment-friendly methodology for the construction of β-keto sulfones through visible-light induced direct oxysulfonylation of alkenes with sulfonic acids at ambient temperature under open-air conditions was developed. Most importantly, the reaction proceeded smoothly without the addition of any photocatalyst or strong oxidant, ultimately minimizing the production of chemical waste.

- A Naphthalimide-Based ND-O-EAc Photocatalyst for Sulfonation of Alkenes to Access β-Ketosulfones Under Visible Light
-
The development of facile, efficient, cost-effective, and visible light-driven photocatalysts for organic synthetic chemistry has received increasing attention. This protocol has initially synthesized a naphthalimide-based ND-O-EAc visible light photocatalyst for the sulfonation of alkenes to produce β-ketosulfones. Compared with the current photosynthetic strategies, the newly developed catalytic system has some merits, namely high efficiency, gram-scale preparation of low-cost photocatalyst, no metal contamination, wide substrate scope, and green terminal oxidant of air. Moreover, the prepared photocatalyst of ND-O-EAc is feasible for the sulfonation reactions of androstenones. Importantly, such a photocatalysis strategy can easily realize the scale-up synthesis for β-ketosulfone drugs under the mild conditions up to 90 % yield.

- Synthesis of arylethyl (E)-styrylsulfones and arylsulfones by one-pot DIBAL-H/NaH-mediated reaction of β-ketosulfones
-
A facile one-pot synthetic route for preparing a series of arylethyl (E)-styrylsulfones or arylethyl arylsulfones is developed. The efficient one-pot DIBAL-H/NaH-mediated route includes reduction of α-benzyl-β- arylketosulfones and retroaldol/aldol or retro aldol reaction of the resulting intermediate. The DIBAL-H/NaH-mediated reaction mechanism has been discussed. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart. New York.
