Organic polar crystals from the donor-acceptor substituted 1,4-diphenybutadiene 1 can generate a short-circuit photocurrent and a photovoltage upon illumination with near UV light. The photocurrent and photovoltage are attributed to a bulk photovoltaic effect. The bulk photovoltaic effect has been known for inorganic polar crystals for decades and can now also be demonstrated for organic polar crystals. This journal is the Partner Organisations 2014.

Chiral sulfones are important structural motifs in organic synthesis because of their widespread use in pharmaceutical chemistry. In particular, chiral allylic sulfones have drawn particular interest because of their synthetic utility. However, enantioselective synthesis of 1,3-disubstituted unsymmetrical chiral allylic sulfones remains a challenge. In this article, we report a protocol for (R)-DTBM-Segphos/Pd-catalyzed regio- A nd enantioselective hydrosulfonylation of 1,3-dienes with sulfinic acids, which provides atom- A nd step-economical access to 1,3-disubstituted chiral allylic sulfones. The reaction occurs under mild conditions and has a broad substrate scope. Combined experimental and computational studies suggest that the reaction is initiated by a ligand-to-ligand hydrogen transfer followed by a C-S bond reductive elimination via a six-membered transition state. Steric repulsion between the olefinic C-H of the substrate and the tert-butyl group of (R)-DTBM-Segphos was found to be a key factor in the enantiocontrol.
