Reported is the construction, and facile base-mediated conversation of ten differently substituted 3-azido E-vinyl sulfones (γ-azido-α,β-unsaturated sulfones) into their isomeric vinyl azide counterparts. The requisite 3-azido E-vinyl sulfones were prepared from 3-bromo E-vinyl sulfones, which in turn were accessed from allyl sulfones via a bromination-elimination sequence. In relation to this a one-pot azidation-isomerisation sequence was developed which enabled the direct formation of the vinyl azides from the corresponding 3-bromo E-vinyl sulfones. Similarly, a convenient one-pot Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons olefination-isomerisation approach was utilised in order to prepare some of the allylic sulfones used in this study. The vinyl azide forming process typically proceeded with high levels of Z-selectivity, although this was dependent on the vinyl sulfone substitution pattern. Thus, with either no substituent or a methyl group in the γ- or β-position, relative to the sulfone, good, to high levels of Z-selectivity (Z/E = 85:15 to ≥ 95:5) were obtained. However, incorporation of an α-sulfonyl methyl substituent led to an E-selective process (Z/E = 20:80). A non-bonding interaction between the azido group and the α-sulfonyl vinylic proton is proposed, which acts as a conformational control mechanism to help guide the stereochemical outcome.

A base-mediated [3 + 3] benzannulation strategy for the conversion of 1,3-bis(sulfonyl)propenes and β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters to diaryl sulfones has been developed. This method provides facile, metal-free and efficient access to highly substituted diaryl sulfones in good to excellent yields. In addition, the sulfonyl group could be easily removed or converted to other functional groups via an organostannane intermediate.

A series of natural products-based phenyl sulfone derivative and their property-based analogues were investigated as potential growth inhibitors of Trypanosoma brucei. Trypanosoma brucei is a kinetoplastid protozoan parasite that causes trypanosomiasis. In this work, we found that nopol- and quinoline-based phenyl sulfone derivative were the most active and selective for T. brucei, and they were not reactive towards the active thiol of T. brucei's cysteine protease rhodesain. A thiol reactive variant of the quinoline-based phenyl sulfone was subsequently investigated and found to be a moderate inhibitor of rhodesain. The quinoline-based compound that is not reactive towards rhodesain can serve a template for phenotypic-based lead discovery while its thiol-active congener can serve as template for structure-based investigation of new antitrypanosomal agents.
Reactions of lithiated (E)-3-halo-1-phenylsulfonylprop-1-enes and (Z)-1-halo-3-phenylsulfonylprop-1-enes with aldehydes

(E)-3-Chloro-1-phenylsulfonylprop-1-ene and its iodo- and bromo- analogues, (Z)-1-iodo-3-phenylsulfonylprop-1-ene and (Z)-1-bromo-3-phenylsulfonylprop-1-ene, have each been successfully converted into lithiated carbanions which react regioselectively with aromatic aldehydes to give γ-alkylated products whose nature depends upon the halogen substituent; the chloro-sulfones yield (2Z)-1-aryl-1-chloro-4-phenylsulfonylbut-2-en-1-ols but the bromo- and iodo-derivatives behave differently, yielding (1E)-trans-4-aryl-3,4-epoxy-1-phenylsulfonylbut-1-enes. In sharp contrast, the same lithiated sulfones react with aliphatic aldehydes to give anti-configured β-hydroxysulfones which are formed via diastereoselective α-alkylation reactions.

Diastereomerically pure-2-cyclopropylglycines 2,2'-substituted with an electron-withdrawing group, were prepared in two steps by Michael addition of the glycine equivalent 2-(diphenylmethylene-amino)acetate 11 to various Michael acceptors of type I with s
