Replacing the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with oxidation reactions for the synthesis of complex pharmaceutical molecules coupled with enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is highly attractive, but it is rarely explored. Here, we report an electrochemical protocol for selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides over a CoFe layered double hydroxide (CoFe-LDH) anode in an aqueous-MeCN electrolyte, coupled with 2-fold promoted cathodic H2productivity. This protocol displays high activity (85-96% yields), catalyst stability (10 cycles), and generality (12 examples) in selective sulfide oxidation. We demonstrate its applicability in the synthesis of four important pharmaceutical related sulfoxide compounds with scalability (up to 1.79 g). X-ray spectroscopy investigations reveal that the CoFe-LDH material evolved into amorphous CoFe-oxyhydroxide under catalytic conditions. This work may pave the way towards sustainable organic synthesis of valuable pharmaceuticals coupled with H2production.

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.

, 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.
Electrochemical oxidations of thioethers: Modulation of oxidation potential using a hydrogen bonding network

, (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.

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.
