Sulfonamides are key motifs in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, spurring the continuous development of novel and efficient synthetic methods to access these functional groups. Herein, we report an environmentally benign electrochemical method which enables the oxidative coupling between thiols and amines, two readily available and inexpensive commodity chemicals. The transformation is completely driven by electricity, does not require any sacrificial reagent or additional catalysts and can be carried out in only 5 min. Hydrogen is formed as a benign byproduct at the counter electrode. Owing to the mild reaction conditions, the reaction displays a broad substrate scope and functional group compatibility.

The hydrofunctionalization of alkenes, explored for over 100 years, offers the potential for a direct, atom-economical approach to value-added products. While thermodynamically favored, the kinetic barrier to such processes necessitates the use of catalysts to control selectivity and reactivity. Modern variants typically rely on noble metals that require different ligands for each class of hydrofunctionalization, thereby limiting generality. This Letter describes a general iron-based system that catalyzes the hydroamination and hydroetherification of simple unactivated olefins.

The vast applications of triflic acid (TfOH) in catalysis are severely limited by its corrosive and fuming properties. Immobilization of TfOH on silica gel well solves these problems and affords efficient recovery and reusability of TfOH. Two types of supported TfOH, the prepared silica gel supported TfOH and the in situ silica gel adsorbed TfOH, both exhibit good catalytic activity and reusability in the hydroamination of alkene with sulfonamide. The in situ silica gel adsorbed catalyst has been used for 5 runs with maintained reactivities and yields, which are superior to the performance of the prepared silica gel supported TfOH. For a series of alkenes and various sulfonamides, the heterogeneous hydroamination reactions catalyzed by both types of silica gel supported TfOH to afford similar moderate to excellent yields.
