Sulfinic acids are commonly encountered intermediates found in natural product synthesis and medicinal chemistry. However, because of high reactivity, instability, and harsh reaction conditions, they are difficult to synthesize. Herein we have developed an oxidation-free method to produce sulfinic acids and sulfinate salts using 2-sulfinyl benzothiazole (BTS). We have also demonstrated the synthetic usefulness by developing one-pot syntheses of sulfones and sulfonamides.

Allyl sulfones are versatile intermediates in organic chemistry. The presence of two distinct functional groups sets the stage for a plethora of subsequent transformations. However, despite these advantages the preparation of regioisomerically enriched sulfones is not easy. The use of sulfinate salts as nucleophiles in substitutions is frequently accompanied by side reactions such as π-bond migration, β-elimination, and so on. Herein we present a preparatively simple way to synthesize a variety of different aryl or alkyl allyl sulfones starting from readily accessible allylic carbonates. By employing aryl or alkyl α-sulfonyl succinimides as sulfinate synthons, mild and regioselective ipso substitution of diverse allylic carbonates was realized.
