- Modular synthesis of triarylmethanes through palladium-catalyzed sequential arylation of methyl phenyl sulfone
-
Triarylmethanes, which are valuable structures in materials, sensing and pharmaceuticals, have been synthesized starting from methyl phenyl sulfone as an inexpensive and readily available template. The three aryl groups were installed through two sequential palladium-catalyzed C-H arylation reactions, followed by an arylative desulfonation. This method provides a new synthetic approach to multisubstituted triarylmethanes using readily available haloarenes and aryl boronic acids, and is also valuable for the preparation of unexplored triarylmethane-based materials and pharmaceuticals. Unsymmetric triarylmethanes have been synthesized starting from methyl phenyl sulfone as an inexpensive and readily available template. The three aryl groups were installed through two sequential palladium-catalyzed C-H arylation reactions, followed by an arylative desulfonation. Copyright

Benzyl and para-substituted benzylcobaloximes react with substituted arenesulphonyl chlorides under photochemical and anaerobic conditions at 0 deg C to give a variety of products including the sulphones, bibenzyls, and benzyl ethers of dimethylglyoxime in variable yields.However, when the reactions are carried out in the presence of a 1 mol excess of pyridine, the yield of sulphones is increased by at least 20percent in each case.The corresponding yield of bibenzyls is decreased and no trace of the benzyl ether of dimethylglyoxime is formed.On the other hand, the reaction of heteroaromatic methyl cobaloximes with arenesulphonyl chlorides form the corresponding sulphones as the exclusive organic product in good yield and with no side products.The reactions are interpreted in terms of a direct attack of the arenesulphonyl radical on the α carbon of the benzyl and heteroaromatic methyl ligand.
