The emergence of nitroxyl (HNO) as a biological signaling molecule is attracting increasing attention. HNO-based prodrugs show considerable potential in treating congestive heart failure, with HNO reacting rapidly with metal centers and protein-bound and free thiols. A new class of 2-(2-nitrophenyl)ethyl (2-NPE)-photocaged N-hydroxysulfonamides has been developed, and the mechanisms of photodecomposition have been investigated. Three photodecomposition pathways are observed: The desired concomitant C-O/N-S bond cleavage to generate HNO, sulfinate, and 2-nitrostyrene, C-O bond cleavage to give the parent sulfohydroxamic acid and 2-nitrostyrene, and O-N bond cleavage to release a sulfonamide and 2-nitrophenylacetaldehyde. Laser flash photolysis experiments provide support for a Norrish type II mechanism involving 1,5-hydrogen atom abstraction to generate an aci-nitro species. A mechanism is proposed in which the (Z)-aci-nitro intermediate undergoes either C-O bond cleavage to release RSO2NHO(H), concerted C-O/N-S bond cleavage to generate sulfinate and HNO, or isomerization to the (E)-isomer prior to O-N bond cleavage. The pKa of the N(H) of the N-hydroxysulfonamide plays a key role in determining whether C-O or concerted C-O/N-S bond cleavage occurs. Deprotonating this site favors the desired C-O/N-S bond cleavage at the expense of an increased level of undesired O-N bond cleavage. Triplet state quenchers have no effect on the observed photoproducts.

Transformation of aryl alcohols into high-value functionalized aromatic compounds by selective cleavage and functionalization of the C(aryl)-C(OH) bond is of crucial importance, but very challenging by far. Herein, for the first time, we report a novel and versatile strategy for activation and functionalization of C(aryl)-C(OH) bonds by the cooperation of oxygenation and decarboxylative functionalization. A diverse range of aryl alcohol substrates were employed as arylation reagents via the cleavage of C(aryl)-C(OH) bonds and effectively converted into corresponding thioether, arene, and arylated benzoxazole products in excellent yields, in a Cu based catalytic system using O2 as the oxidant. This study offers a new way for aryl alcohol conversion and potentially offers a new opportunity to produce high-value functionalized aromatics from renewable feedstocks such as lignin which features abundant C(aryl)-C(OH) bonds in its linkages.

A variety of cyclic sulfonamides and sulfinamides could be selectively synthesized under Pd catalysis using haloarenes bearing amino groups and a sulfur dioxide (SO2) surrogate. The amount of base was key in determining the selectivity. Mechanistic studies revealed that sulfinamides were initially formed via an unprecedented formal insertion of sulfur monoxide and were oxidized to sulfonamides in the presence of an iodide ion and DMSO.
