A new method for the direct conversion of 4-pentenylsulfonamides to 2-formylpyrrolidines and a 2-ketopyrrolidine has been developed. This transformation occurs via aerobic copper-catalyzed alkene aminooxygenation where molecular oxygen serves as both oxidant and oxygen source. The 2-formylpyrrolidines can further undergo oxidative carbon-carbon bond cleavage in situ upon addition of DABCO, providing 2-pyrrolidinones. These transformations have been demonstrated for a range of 4-pentenylsulfonamides. 4-Pentenylalcohols also undergo oxidative cyclization to form γ-lactones predominantly. The reaction is chemoselective, oxidizing one alkene in the presence of others, and is compatible with several functional groups. Application of these reactions to the formal syntheses of baclofen and (+)-monomorine was demonstrated.

An integration of electrooxidative cyclization and chemical oxidation was achieved. Electrochemical oxidation of alkenes having a nucleophilic moiety in the presence of DMSO gave cyclized alkoxysulfonium ions, which were converted to the corresponding ket

Generation of carbocations by the "cation pool" method followed by reaction with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) gave the corresponding alkoxysulfonium ions. Alkoxysulfonium ions could also be generated by in situ DMSO trapping of electrochemically generated carbocations. The resulting alkoxysulfonium ions were transformed into carbonyl compounds by treatment with triethylamine. The present integrated electrochemical-chemical oxidation can be applied to the oxidation of diarylmethanes to diaryl ketones, toluenes to benzaldehydes, and aryl-substituted alkenes to 1,2-diketones. Moreover, the oxidation of unsaturated compounds bearing a nucleophilic group in an appropriate position gives cyclized carbonyl compounds.
