Homocysteine and cysteine are the only natural occurring amino acids that are capable of disulfide bond formations in peptides and proteins. The chemoselective formation of asymmetric disulfide bonds, however, is chemically challenging and requires an activating group combining stability against hard nucleophiles, e.g., amines, with reactivity toward thiols and soft nucleophiles. In light of these considerations, we introduced the S-alkylsulfonyl cysteines in our previous work. Here, we present the synthesis and ring-opening polymerization of S-ethylsulfonyl-l-homocysteine N-carboxyanhydrides. We demonstrate that the polymerization leads to narrowly distributed polypeptides (D= 1.1-1.3) with no detectable side reactions in a chain length regime from 11 to 165. In contrast to the already reported cysteine derivatives, poly(S-ethylsulfonyl-l-homocysteine)s do not form β-sheets, which reduce solubility and limit the degree of polymerization of poly(S-ethylsulfonyl-l-cysteine)s to 50. Instead, these polymers form α-helices as confirmed by circular dicroism (CD) experiments and infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). In comparison to the cysteine derivatives, the α-helix formation leads to slightly faster polymerization kinetics (rate constants from 1.44 × 10-5 to 5.29 × 10-5 s-1). In addition, the ability for the chemoselective formation of asymmetric disulfides is preserved as monitored via 1H NMR experiments. Consequently, this new polypeptide overcomes the chain length limitations of poly(S-ethylsulfonyl-l-cysteine)s and thus provides convenient access to reactive poly(S-ethylsulfonyl-l-homocysteine)s for chemoselective disulfide formation.

We herein report a selective and catalytic C(sp3)-H functionalization approach to access amines bearing organo-sulfonyl and organo-thiol groups. This reaction proceeds through a cascade process of N-radical formation, alkyl radical formation via 1,5-HAT, and C-S bond formation, thereby offering a series of functionalized amines. This method could enable primary, secondary, and tertiary C(sp3)-H sulfonylation and thiolation and also exhibits good functional group tolerance.

Reported herein is a visible-light-induced sulfonation of α-trifluoromethylstyrenes with sodium sulfinates, which provides a series of α-trifluoromethyl-β-sulfonyl tertiary alcohols. This new synthetic protocol is enabled by a charge-transfer complex between oxygen and sulfinates, featuring broad substrate scope and scalability. Excellent functional group compatibility and chemoselectivity render this method suitable for sulfonation of pharmaceutically relevant molecules. In the presence of D2O, deuteriotrifluorinated products were also obtained, further demonstrating the flexibility and synthetic potentials of this strategy.

An efficient and convenient protocol for the direct sulfonylation of BODIPY dyes with sodium sulfinates via a radical process is described for the first time. This transformation presented wide substrate scope and high regioselectivity, providing a series of α-sulfonylated BODIPYs. Meaningfully, the sulfonyl group, as a good leaving group, allowed the facile introduction of a variety of functionalities on the BODIPY core. Moreover, a 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl (DBS) group substituted BODIPY showed dramatically quenched fluorescence via the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) pathway, and was demonstrated as a new fluorescent probe for selective biothiol detection.

A convenient and e?cient synthesis of sulfones from sulfinates and aryl halides was developed. The reaction occurred under UV irradiation without transition metal catalyst or photocatalyst. A radical pathway via single-electron transfer (SET) of electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex was proposed based on UV-vis spectroscopy, radical inhibiting and trapping experiments.

We describe here the first general asymmetric synthesis of sterically encumbered α,α-disubstituted allylic sulfones via Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution. The design and application of a new and highly efficient phosphoramidite ligand (L10) proved to be crucial, and a wide variety of challenging allylic sulfones featuring quaternary stereocenters could be obtained in good yields and with good to excellent levels of regio- and enantioselectivities under attractive process conditions. The developed methodology employs easily accessible chemical feedstock including racemic allylic precursors and sodium sulfinates. The utility of the method is further demonstrated by the synthesis of the sesquiterpene (?)-Agelasidine A.

An environmentally benign protocol that affords propargylic sulfones containing highly congested carbon centers from easily accessible alcohols and sulfinic acids with water as the only byproduct is reported. The reaction proceeded via an in situ dehydrative cross-coupling process by taking advantage of the synergetic actions of multiple hydrogen bonds rather than relying on an external catalyst and/or additives to achieve high product distribution.

The ability to reversibly cross-link proteins and peptides grants the amino acid cysteine its unique role in nature as well as in peptide chemistry. We report a novel class of S-alkylsulfonyl-l-cysteines and N-carboxy anhydrides (NCA) thereof for peptide synthesis. The S-alkylsulfonyl group is stable against amines and thus enables its use under Fmoc chemistry conditions and the controlled polymerization of the corresponding NCAs yielding well-defined homo- as well as block co-polymers. Yet, thiols react immediately with the S-alkylsulfonyl group forming asymmetric disulfides. Therefore, we introduce the first reactive cysteine derivative for efficient and chemoselective disulfide formation in synthetic polypeptides, thus bypassing additional protective group cleavage steps.
