- Rh(I)-Catalyzed Intramolecular Decarbonylation of Thioesters
-
Decarbonylative synthesis of thioethers from thioesters proceeds in the presence of a catalytic amount of [Rh(cod)Cl]2 (2 mol %). The protocol represents the first Rh-catalyzed decarbonylative thioetherification of thioesters to yield valuable thioethers. Notable features include the absence of phosphine ligands, inorganic bases, and other additives and excellent group tolerance to aryl chlorides and bromides that are problematic using other metals to promote decarbonylation. Gram scale synthesis, late-stage pharmaceutical derivatization, and orthogonal site-selective cross-couplings by C-S/C-Br cleavage are reported.

- Pd-Catalyzed Double-Decarbonylative Aryl Sulfide Synthesis through Aryl Exchange between Amides and Thioesters
-
We report the palladium-catalyzed double-decarbonylative synthesis of aryl thioethers by an aryl exchange reaction between amides and thioesters. In this method, amides serve as aryl donors and thioesters are sulfide donors, enabling the synthesis of valuable aryl sulfides. The use of Pd/Xantphos without any additives has been identified as the catalytic system promoting the aryl exchange by C(O)-N/C(O)-S cleavages. The method is amenable to a wide variety of amides and sulfides.

- Chan-Lam-Type C-S Coupling Reaction by Sodium Aryl Sulfinates and Organoboron Compounds
-
A Chan-Lam-Type C-S coupling reaction using sodium aryl sulfinates has been developed to provide diaryl thioethers in up to 92% yields in the presence of a copper catalyst and potassium sulfite. Both electron-rich and electron-poor sodium aryl sulfinates and diverse organoboron compounds were tolerated for the synthesis of aryl and heteroaryl thioethers and dithioethers. The mechanistic study suggested that potassium sulfite was involved in the deoxygenation of sulfinate through a radical process.

- NiFe2O4 as a magnetically recoverable nanocatalyst for odourless C–S bond formation via the cleavage of C–O bond in the presence of S8 under mild and green conditions
-
We present green methodologies for one-pot and odourless syntheses of unsymmetric and symmetric diaryl sulfides via C─O bond activation using NiFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles as a reusable heterogeneous nanocatalyst. The synthesis of unsymmetric sulfides is performed using the cross-coupling reaction of phenolic esters such as acetates, triflates and tosylates with arylboronic acid/S8 or triphenyltin chloride/S8 as thiolating agents in the presence of base and NiFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles as a catalyst in poly(ethylene glycol) as solvent at 60–85°C. Also, the synthesis of symmetric diaryl sulfides from phenolic compounds using S8 as the sulfur source and NiFe2O4 as catalyst in dimethylformamide at 120°C is described. Using these protocols, the syntheses of various unsymmetric and symmetric sulfides become easier than using the available protocols due to the use of a magnetically reusable bimetallic nanocatalyst and avoiding the use of thiols and aryl halides.

A general, highly selective method for decarbonylative thioetherification of aryl thioesters by C-S cleavage is reported. These reactions are promoted by a commercially-available, user-friendly, inexpensive, air- and moisture-stable nickel precatalyst. The process occurs with broad functional group tolerance, including free anilines, cyanides, ketones, halides and aryl esters, to efficiently generate thioethers using ubiquitous carboxylic acids as ultimate cross-coupling precursors (cf. conventional aryl halides or pseudohalides). Selectivity studies and site-selective orthogonal cross-coupling/thioetherification are described. This thioester activation/coupling has been highlighted in the expedient synthesis of biorelevant drug analogue. In light of the synthetic utility of thioethers and Ni(ii) precatalysts, we anticipate that this user-friendly method will be of broad interest.

Useful and applicable methods for one-pot and odorless synthesis of unsymmetrical and symmetrical diaryl sulfides via C-O bond activation are presented. First, a new efficient procedure for the synthesis of unsymmetrical sulfides using the cross-coupling reaction of phenolic esters such as acetates, tosylates, and triflates and with arylboronic acid or triphenyltin chloride as the coupling partners is reported. Depending on the reaction, S 8 /KF or S 8 /NaO t -Bu system is found to be an effective source of sulfur in the presence of copper salts and in poly(ethylene glycol) as a green solvent. Then, the synthesis of symmetrical diaryl sulfides from phenolic compounds by using S 8 as the sulfur source and NaO t -Bu in anhydrous DMF at 120 °C under N 2 is described. By these protocols, the synthesis of a variety of unsymmetrical and symmetrical sulfides become easier than the available protocols in which thiols and aryl halides are directly used for the preparation of the sulfides.

A by-product-catalyzed redox-neutral process has been established through tandem sulfenylation/deiodination/aromatization of cyclic alkenyl iodides with sulfonyl hydrazides. In the absence of external catalysts and additives a range of 4-iodo-1,2-dihydronaphthalenes reacted with sulfonyl hydrazides to give structurally diverse 2-naphthyl thioethers in good yields. Mechanistic studies showed that at an early stage sulfonyl hydrazides decomposed completely to thiosulfonates and disulfides and at a late stage the resulting thiosulfonates underwent tandem sulfenylation/deiodination/aromatization with 4-iodo-1,2-dihydronaphthalenes involving a [1,5]-sigmatropic hydrogen shift. Importantly, iodine was generated as a by-product from 4-iodo-1,2-dihydronaphthalenes upon heating and served as a catalyst for the decomposition of sulfonyl hydrazides and subsequent formation of 2-naphthyl thioethers.

Unsymmetrical diaryl ethers were also obtained by using phenol precursors at 40-45 C. Aryl bromides with methyl, trifluoromethyl, methoxy and nitro substituents showed compatibility in the carbon-chalcogen bond forming reaction. 4-Methoxy, methyl, trifluoromethyl substituted bromobenzene substrates gave two regioisomers: 3-substituted and 4-substituted diaryl chalcogenides when reacted with phenols/diaryl disulfides/diselenides. Formation of two regioisomeric diaryl chalcogenides in the reaction mixture suggests that potassium tert-butoxide reacts with bromobenzene to produce benzyne intermediate, which subsequently reacts with diaryl dichalcogenides and finally give a regioisomeric mixture of 4-substituted and 3-substituted diaryl chalcogenides.

- High surface and magnetically recoverable mPANI/pFe3O 4 nanocomposites for C-S bond formation in water
-
A high surface area mPANI/pFe3O4 nanocomposite from mesoporous polyaniline and porous magnetic Fe3O4 was used as a catalyst in the S-arylation of thiophenol with aryl chlorides and in the C-S bond formation between aryl iodides and thiourea in water. The mesoporosity of the polyaniline enhances the efficiency and stability of the porous magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles in both coupling reactions. The mPANI/pFe3O4 nanocomposite can be recovered with an external magnet and reused several times due to the superparamagnetic nature of the porous Fe3O4 nanoparticles.

- Synthesis of aryl thioethers through the N -chlorosuccinimide-promoted cross-coupling reaction of thiols with Grignard reagents
-
A convenient one-pot approach for the synthesis of aryl sulfides through the coupling of thiols with Grignard reagents in the presence of N-chlorosuccinimide is described. The sulfenylchlorides were formed when thiols were treated with N-chlorosuccinimide, and the resulting sulfenylchlorides were then directly reacted with Grignard reagents to provide aryl sulfides in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. Functional groups including ester, fluoro, and chloro are tolerated by the reaction conditions employed. It is important to note that this method has a short reaction time (30 min in total) and represents an alternative approach for the synthesis of aryl sulfides over the existing protocols.

- Chan-lam-type s-arylation of thiols with boronic acids at room temperature
-
In this work, an efficient CuSO4-catalyzed S-arylation of thiols with aryl and heteroaryl boronic acids at room temperature is established. This catalytic system can tolerate a wide variety of thiols and arylboronic acids in the presence of only 5 mol % of CuSO4 as the catalyst and inexpensive 1,10-phen?H2O as the ligand. Moreover, this catalytic system used environment-friendly solvent (EtOH) and oxidant (oxygen).

- Hyperaromatic stabilization of arenium ions: Acid-catalyzed dehydration of 2-substituted 1,2-dihydro-1-naphthols
-
Rate constants for acid-catalyzed dehydration of cis-2-substituted 1,2-dihydro-naphthols are well correlated by the Taft relationship log k = -0.49 - 8.8σI, with minor negative deviations for OH and OMe. By contrast the trans substituents show a poor correlation with σI and in most cases react more slowly than their cis isomers. The behavior is consistent with rate-determining formation of a 2-substituted carbocation (naphthalenium ion) intermediate that for cis reactants possesses a 2-C-H bond suitably oriented for hyperconjugation with the charge center. For the trans isomers the 2-substituent itself is oriented for hyperconjugation in the initially formed conformation of the cation. It is argued that k cis/ktrans rate ratios for substituents (Me, 8.4; Bu t, 12.7; Ph, 3.8; NH3+, 160; OH, 440) reflect their hyperconjugating ability relative to hydrogen. Faster reactions of trans isomers are observed for substitutents known (RS, N3) or suspected (EtSO, EtSO2) of stabilizing the cation by a π or σ neighboring group effect. The good Taft correlation is taken to indicate that cis substuents are reacting normally, differentiated only by their inductive effects. The slower reactions of the trans isomers are the judged to be "abnormal". This is confirmed by comparing effects of cis and trans β-OH substituents on the reactivities of dihydro phenols, naphthols, and phenanthrols. Whereas kH/kOH for cis substituents varies by less than 8-fold and is consistent with the influence of an inductive effect of the OH group (kH/kOH ≈ 2000), kH/k OH for the trans substituents varies by 3 orders of magnitude, reflecting the additional influence of the lesser hyperconjugating ability of a C-OH bond compared to a C-H bond. The magnitude and variation of this difference is consistent with C-H hyperconjugation conferring aromatic character on the arenium ions

-
An efficient protocol was developed for the CuFe2O4 nanopowder-catalyzed aryl-sulfur bond formation between aryl halide and thiol/disulfide. A variety of aryl sulfides were synthesized in impressive yields with good chemoselectivity and functional group tolerance in the presence of a catalytic amount of CuFe2O4, Cs2CO 3 as base, in nitrogen atmosphere, under ligand-free conditions, in DMSO as solvent at 100 °C. The catalyst is air-stable, inexpensive, magnetically separable and recyclable up to four cycles.

- Mechanistic insights into C-S cross-coupling reactions catalyzed by nickel bis(phosphinite) pincer complexes
-
Nickel bis(phosphinite) pincer complexes [2,6-(R2PO) 2C6H3]NiCl (R = Ph, 1a; R = Me, 1b; R = iPr, 1c; R = tBu, 1d) show catalytic activity in cross-coupling of aryl iodides and aryl thiols. The optimal catalytic conditions involve 1 mol % of 1a and 2 equiv of KOH (with respect to aryl thiols) in DMF at 80 °C and tolerate a variety of functional groups in the substrates. The potential intermediates in these catalytic reactions, such as nickel thiolate complexes [2,6-(Ph2PO)2C6H3]NiSAr (Ar = Ph, 2a; Ar = p-MeC6H4, 3a; Ar = p-MeOC 6H4, 4a), have been synthesized and spectroscopically characterized. The reaction between 2a and PhI in DMF-d7 is slow enough to argue against 2a being directly involved in the C-S bond-forming step. NMR studies suggest that the pincer ligand framework in complexes 1a, 3a, and 4a is destroyed by KOH via the cleavage of P-O bonds to release Ph 2POK, and further decomposition leads to Ph3P and other phosphorus-containing products. The cross-coupling reactions are more effectively catalyzed by Ni(COD)2/Ph2P(O)H. The structures of 1b, 2a, 4a, and [2,6-(Ph2PO)2C6H 3]NiP(O)Ph2 (5a), which is relevant to the decomposition process, have been studied by X-ray crystallography.
