, p. 153 - 160 (2021/10/04)
A highly chemoselective route to aryl methyl sulfones via an unexpected C S bond formation between sulfonylhydrazides and dimethyl phosphite catalyzed by NaI under mild conditions has been established. This transformation provides an alternative and metal-free pathway to acquire various aryl methyl sulfones in good to excellent yields. Notably, dimethyl phosphite was employed as a stable and readily available alkyl source.

supporting information, p. 10314 - 10318 (2021/12/17)
A practical and eco-friendly method for the controllable aerobic oxygenation of sulfides by electrochemical catalysis was developed. The switchable preparation of sulfoxides and sulfones was effectively controlled by reaction time, in which both molecular oxygen and water can be used as the oxygen source under catalyst and external oxidant-free conditions. The electrochemical protocol features a broad substrate scope and excellent site selectivity and is successfully applied to the modification of some sulfide-containing pharmaceuticals and their derivatives.

An efficient electrochemical flow process for the selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones and of sulfoxides toN-cyanosulfoximines has been developed. In total, 69 examples of sulfoxides, sulfones, andN-cyanosulfoximines have been synthesized in good to excellent yields and with high current efficiencies. The synthesis was assisted and facilitated through a supporting electrolyte-free, fully automated electrochemical protocol that highlights the advantages of flow electrolysis.

The development of eco-friendly and switchable catalytic systems for the conversion of a sole raw-material into distinct high-value products is a particularly attractive concept and a daunting synthetic challenge. In the present work, the first example of efficient and selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfones and sulfoxides using molecular oxygen under clean conditions was established.
Oxidation of aromatic sulfides with molecular oxygen: Controllable synthesis of sulfoxides or sulfones
Tang, Lili,Du, Kejie,Yu, Bing,He, Liangnian
, p. 2991 - 2992 (2020/03/24)
The recent development of selective oxidation of aromatic sulfides with molecular oxygen was highlighted. The sulfoxides and sulfones could be obtained by simply switching the reaction media, i.e., bis(2-butoxyethyl)ether (BBE) or poly(ethylene glycol)dimethyl ether (PEGDME). The application of the high-boiling-point polyether as an initiator and green media can eliminate the need of large quantities of additives and volatile solvents. This strategy represents an economic and eco-friendly method that could find potential applications.

A practical and switchable method for the synthesis of aryl sulfones and sulfoxides via sulfide oxidation was developed. The chemoselectivities of products were simply controlled by reaction temperature using O2/air as the terminal oxidant and oxygen source. The broad substrate scope, easy realization of gram-scale production, and the simplification of a sulfide oxidation system render the strategy attractive and valuable.
Controlled α-mono- and α,α-di-halogenation of alkyl sulfones using reagent-solvent halogen bonding

The direct and selective α-mono-bromination of alkyl sulfones was achieved through base-mediated electrophilic halogenation. The appropriate combination of solvent and electrophilic bromine source was found to be critical to control the nature of the products formed, where reagent-solvent halogen bonding is proposed to control the selectivity via alteration of the effective size of the electrophilic bromine source. Conversely, the α,α-di-brominated sulfones were selectively obtained in good yields following polyhalogenation followed by selective de-halogenation during workup. Both procedures can be applied on gram scale, and the mono-halogenation was successfully extended to the fully selective α-chlorination, α-iodination and α-fluorination of alkyl sulfones.
Electrochemical oxidations of thioethers: Modulation of oxidation potential using a hydrogen bonding network
Liu, Shiwen,Chen, Bocheng,Yang, Yi,Yang, Yuhao,Chen, Qianjin,Zeng, Xiaojun,Xu, Bo
, (2019/11/28)
A highly efficient chemo-selective electrochemical oxidation of thioethers to sulfoxides and sulfones was developed. The hydrogen bonding network generated from hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) and acetic acid (AcOH) plays an important role in the modulation of oxidation potential. The hydrogen bonding network complexes strongly with the sulfoxide, making it less prone to further oxidation. Therefore, thioethers can be selectively electrochemically oxidized to sulfoxides and over-oxidization could be minimized. Moreover, this modulation of oxidization via hydrogen bonding was supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and cyclic voltammetry experiments.
