A new method is reported for the synthesis of alkyl aryl sulfones by alkylation of sodium arenesulfinates with unactivated alkyl chlorides using ionic liquid based on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BmimBF 4) mixed with water (2:1) as reaction media. The ionic liquid can be reused and the procedure gives the sulfones in moderate yields.
Ortho-bis (alkylsulphonyl) benzenes: The fate of their electrochemically formed anion radical: SN2 vs cleavage reaction
Belkasmioui, Ahmed,Simonet, Jacques
, p. 2481 - 2484 (1991)
Title compounds are electrochemically reduced into anion radicals of rather long lifetime. Surprisingly decomposition of such intermediates does not correspond as expected to a pure sulphur-carbon bond cleavage but mainly to a nucleophilic substitution toward the substrate. Nevertheless, cleavage reactions are observed in the case of methyl compounds.
Biocatalytic Oxidation of Sulfides to Sulfones
Dhiman, Shefali
, p. 250 - 255 (2021/03/29)
This paper describes a method for the biocatalytic oxidation of sulfides. During the screening of microorganisms using pure cultures of bacteria and fungi for the oxidation of sulfides, it was observed that a number of strains of microorganisms, were able to oxidize various sulfides (1-4), but the desired sulfoxide was either not obtained or obtained only as a minor product. A close observation of the reaction showed complete oxidation and thus sulfone (5-8) formation had occurred in these cases. Sulfones are used to stabilize intermediates like α-radicals, α-anions etc. and also used as cationic synthons in many known reactions. This prompted us to explore the sulfone synthesis by biocatalytic route. Approximately 20% of the strains tested (400 bacterial and 200 fungal) showed the formation of sulfone with conversion rate varying from 3 to 100% based on TLC analysis. There were two strains of fungi, Aspergillus ochraceus MTCC 5245 and Penicillium Funiculosum MTCC 5246 which showed excellent biocatalytic activity for oxidation sulfides to corresponding sulfones in high yield. In all these strains, the product was different from corresponding standard sulfoxide prepared by oxidation with m-chloroperbenzoic acid but well corresponded with the standard sample of sulfone prepared by oxidation of the corresponding sulfides with oxone. The identity of sulfones in all cases was confirmed by 1H NMR. Published by Oriental Scientific Publishing Company
Highly efficient and selective aqueous aerobic oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides or sulfones catalyzed by tungstate-functionalized nanomaterial

A Br?nsted acidic ionic solid comrising tungstate-functionaized polyorganosiloxane framework (PMO-IL-WO42?) efficiently catalysed aerobic oxidation of sulfides in aqueous medium. The catalyst can selectively produce sulfoxides or sulfones by running the reaction at room temperature or 50 °C, respectively. Because of the ionic liquid-based charged surface containing hydrophobic organic functional groups and hydrophilic sulfonic acid group, the synergestic hydrophobic/hydrophilic and redox effect of PMO-IL-WO42- as water-friendly interfacial nanocatalyst simplifies and enhances the activity and selectivity toward the target sulfoxides or sulfones in water. Moreover, the PMO-IL-WO42- nanocatalyst exhibited outstanding stability and activity and can be recycled eight reaction runs without any significant activity and selectivity loss.
Cyanide-Mediated Synthesis of Sulfones and Sulfonamides from Vinyl Sulfones
Lee, Ji-Woong,Roy, Tamal
, p. 455 - 458 (2020/03/13)
We report a facile synthesis of sulfones, β-keto sulfones, and sulfonamides from vinyl sulfones via an addition-elimination sequence where in situ generation of nucleophilic sulfinate ion is mediated by cyanide. The use vinyl sulfones renders high selectivity for S -alkylation to produce sulfones in high yields. In the presence of N -bromosuccinimide, primary and secondary amines underwent sulfonamide formation. A preliminary mechanistic study showed the formation of acrylonitrile as an innocent byproduct, without interfering with the desired reaction pathway while generating a sulfinate nucleophile.

This study describes a novel and catalyst-free methodology for the multicomponent synthesis of a broad range of sulfones, disulfides, and sulfides from non-toxic triarylbismuthines (Ar3Bi) and sodium metabisulfite (Na2S2O5) in deep eutectic solvents (DESs). The fine tuning of the DESs properties allowed the solubility of all reagents, enhancing their reactivity, as well as, the recyclability of the reaction medium for at least 5 consecutive cycles. Thus, this versatile strategy uses non-toxic reagents without the need of metal catalysts in a sustainable solvent, being an interesting alternative to traditional hazardous protocols.

Conventionally, sulfones are prepared by oxidation of sulfides with strong oxidants. Now, a multicomponent reductive cross-coupling involving an inorganic salt (sodium metabisulfite) for the straightforward construction of sulfones is disclosed. Both intramolecular and intermolecular reductive cross-couplings were comprehensively explored, and diverse sulfones were accessible from the corresponding alkyl and aryl halides. Intramolecular cyclic sulfones were systematically obtained from five- to twelve-membered rings. Naturally occurring aliphatic systems, such as steroids, saccharides, and amino acids, were highly compatible with the SO2-insertion reductive cross-coupling. Four clinically applied drug molecules, which include multiple heteroatoms and functional groups with active hydrogens, were successfully prepared via a late-stage SO2 insertion. Mechanistic studies show that alkyl radicals and sulfonyl radicals were both involved as intermediates in this transformation.

Studies on directed ortho -metalation (DoM) of arenesulfonyl fluorides (ArSO 2 F) with in situ electrophile trapping are presented. Under optimized conditions (LDA, THF, -78 °C), a series of model substrates was mono- and difunctionalized with trimethylsilyl chloride in good yields. The synthetic results reveal powerful directing character of the SO 2 F group, being ahead of bromine and methoxy substituents. Under the same metalation conditions, aryl fluorosulfates (ArOSO 2 F) display fragmentation to arynes and migration of the SO 2 F group to the ortho position (anionic thia-Fries rearrangement).
Oxidation of sulfides including DBT using a new vanadyl complex of a non-innocent o-aminophenol benzoxazole based ligand

Reaction of a non-innocent o-aminophenol benzoxazole based ligand HLBAP with VOCl3 afforded a vanadyl complex, VOLBIS (SQ), in which SQ is a 2,4-di-tert-butylsemiquinone produced from hydrolysis of HLBAP. The crystal structure of VOLBIS (SQ) exhibits an octahedral geometry with the VO2+ center coordinated by two nitrogen and one oxygen atoms of LBAP and two oxygen atoms of SQ. Electrochemical studies showed quasi-reversible metal-centered reduction and ligand-centered oxidation of complex. The magnetic moment of VOLBIS (SQ) is consistent with the spin-only value expected for S?=?1/2 system. The neutral species of VOLBIS (SQ) is EPR active, which is consistent with a paramagnetic electronic ground state (S?=?1/2). This result is in accordance with the vanadyl (IV) moiety surrounded by tridentate iminobenzosemiquinonate anion radical (HLBIS)?- and benzosemiquinone ligand (SQ)?. The theoretical calculations confirm the experimental results. Furthermore, we present the optimal conditions for maximum efficiency of sulfide oxidation for oxidative desulfurization with hydrogen peroxide and 6 times reusability of catalyst for sulfoxidation of dibenzothiophene.
