- Multigram scale synthesis of 3,4- and 3,6-dihydro-2H-thiopyran 1,1-dioxides and features of their NMR spectral behavior
-
A new four-step synthesis of 3,4- and 3,6-dihydro-2H-thiopran-1,1-dioxides from dihydro-2H-thiopyran-3(4H)-one is reported. The title compounds are synthesized starting with oxidation of the ketone with a 30% aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide in a mixture of AcOH-Ac2O. The keto group is then reduced by sodium borohydride followed by mesylation and elimination of methanesulfonic acid under basic conditions (pyridine for 3,4-isomer and aqueous NaOH for 3,6-isomer). This sequence is simpler, than previously known methods, uses cheaper and more readily available reagents, and leads to 2H-thiopran-1,1-dioxides on multigram scale with 64% and 74% total yields, respectively. The structure and purity of the compounds were confirmed by 2D NMR and GCMS methods. The proposed method expands the means to access functionalized cyclic sulfones as building blocks in the synthesis of combinatorial libraries of new biologically active compounds.

- Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric arylation of allyl sulfones under the conditions of isomerization into alkenyl sulfones
-
The reaction of 3-sulfolene with arylboronic acids in the presence of a chiral diene-rhodium catalyst under highly basic conditions (10 equiv of KOH) gave high yields of 3-arylsulfolanes with high enantioselectivity, where 3-sulfolene is in equilibration

- Regiochemical and Stereochemical Studies on Halocyclization Reactions of Unsaturated Sulfides
-
The regiochemistry and stereochemistry for the halocyclization reactions of unsaturated benzyl sulfides have been examined as a function of tether length, type of unsaturation (carbon-carbon double bond versus carbon-carbon triple bond), substituents, and halogenating agent.Alkenyl sulfides were found to react with iodine or bromine at room temperature to give five-membered ring cycloadducts exclusively over those having four-membered rings, while for larger systems, six-membered ring products are formed preferentially over their five-membered ring isomers and exclusively over the seven-membered ring adducts.The endo- versus exo-regioselectivity of these alkenyl sulfide ring closure most likely reflects the difference in thermodynamic stabilities of the β-halo sulfide cycloadducts, which are able to equilibrate via a common episulfonium intermediate.The efficiency of cyclization process markedly drops off for these alkenyl sulfides as the tether length increases beyond four intervening carbon centers.Thus, while the halogenations of 3-butenyl sulfides and 4-pentenyl sulfides give high yields of cycloadducts, those of 5-hexenyl sulfides afford only small amounts of cyclized products and large quantities of acyclic dibromides.Conversely, the reactions of acetylenic sulfides with iodine give uniformly high yields and regiochemical control regardless of the tether length.Thus, 3-butynyl and 4-pentynyl sulfides cyclize cleanly to the five-membered ring while 5-hexynyl sulfides give exclusively the six-membered ring.The products arising from these alkynyl sulfide ring closures are believed to be formed under kinetic control.The methodology has been applied to the synthesis of unusual bicyclic β-lactams related to the penicillin family of antibiotics.

- Sulphonate Esters as Sources of Sulphonyl Radicals; Ring-closure Reactions of Alk-4- and -5-enesulphonyl Radicals
-
Alkyl alkanesulphonates and arenesulphonates were found to be useful sources of sulphonyl radicals, particularly for spectroscopic work, when treated with organotin or organosilyl radicals.Allyl, propynyl and penta-2,4-dienyl methanesulphonates gave, however, allyl, propynyl and pentadienyl radicals, respectively.Sulphonyl radicals generated in this way added efficiently to alk-1-enes with electron-releasing substituents, and the EPR spectra of the adduct radicals were recorded.A variety of radical initiation systems were tried on pent-4-enesulphonyl chloride.The pent-4-enesulphonyl radical cyclised mainly in the endo mode to give the six-membered-ring sulphone.Similarly, the hex-5-enesulphonyl radical cyclised to give thiepane 1,1-dioxide, with a seven-membered ring.The cyclohex-2-enylethanesulphonyl radical cyclised mainly in the exo mode to give 2-chloro-9-thiabicyclononane 9,9-dioxide.The mechanisms of these reactions are discussed.

- SENSITIZED PHOTOCYCLODIMERIZATION OF α,β-UNSATURATED CYCLIC SULFONES. CRYSTAL STRUCTURAL ANALYSES OF THE PHOTODIMERS OF 2-SULFOLENE AND THIA-2-CYCLOHEXENE-1,1-DIOXIDE
-
The reactivity of five- and six-membered unsaturated cyclic sulfones in sensitized photocyclodimerization depends on position and substitution of the double bond.Thus, 2-sulfolene (1) and its six-membered analogue thia-2-cyclohexene-1,1-dioxide (3) photodimerize to yield each three products, 5, 6, 7 and 9, 10, 11, respectively, of which only 7 and 10 are analogous.However, 3-methyl-2-sulfolene (1a), 3-sulfolene (2) and its 3-methyl derivative (2a), as well as thia-3-cyclohexene-1,1-dioxide (4) remain unchanged under the same conditions.Dimerization of 1 and 3 is also effected by γ-irradiation.Structure and stereochemistry of the six dimers were determined by crystal structural analyses.Except for 6, the main product of γ-radiation-induced dimerization of 1, all the other dimers (5, 7 and 9-11) are tricyclic cycloadducts with anti (transoid) configuration at the central cyclobutane ring. 6 is an unsaturated open-chain dimer with C-C and C-S bond contractions, the latter indicating conjugation of the double bond with the sulfone group.While the cyclobutane rings of 5 and 7 (from 1) are planar, those of all three dimers from 3 are folded: the 6.4.6 skeletons of two of them comprise one (11) or two (9) trans fusions.
