Direct conversion of sulfinamides to thiosulfonates without the use of additional redox agents under metal-free conditions

Direct conversion of sulfinamides to thiosulfonates is described. Without the use of additional redox agents, the reaction proceeds smoothly in the presence of TFA under metal-free conditions. This protocol possesses many advantages such as odourless and stable starting materials, broad substrate scope, selective synthesis, and mild reaction conditions. This journal is

H4SiW12O40-catalyzed cyclization of epoxides/aldehydes and sulfonyl hydrazides: An efficient synthesis of 3,4-disubstituted 1H-pyrazoles

A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of pyrazoles through a silicotungstic acid (H4SiW12O40)-catalyzed cyclization of epoxides/aldehydes and sulfonyl hydrazides has been developed. Various epoxides/aldehydes were smoothly reacted with sulfonyl hydrazides to furnish regioselectivity 3,4-disubstituted 1H-pyrazoles. The application of such an earth-abundant, readily accessible, and nontoxic catalyst provides a green approach for the construction of 3,4-disubstituted 1H-pyrazoles. A plausible reaction mechanism has been proposed on the basis of control experiments, GC-MS and DFT calculations.

Synthesis of symmetrical / unsymmetrical thiosulfonates through the disproportionate coupling reaction of sulfonyl hydrazide mediated by phosphomolybdic acid

Phosphomolybdic acid (H3PMo12O40) is reported as a green low-cost catalyst for the synthesis of symmetrical / unsymmetrical thiosulfonates via the disproportionate coupling reaction of sulfonyl hydrazide. The attributes of this reported catalytic system include low catalyst loadings (1 mol%), efficient turnover, and high yields (up to 94%). Additionally, this reaction mechanism involves the formation of a thiyl radical and sulfonyl radical via sulfinyl radical disproportionation.

Metal-Free Radical Annulation of Oxygen-Containing 1,7-Enynes: Configuration-Selective Synthesis of (E)-3-((Arylsulfonyl)methyl)-4-Substituted Arylidenechromene Derivatives

A novel strategy for the synthesis of (E)-3-((arylsulfonyl)methyl)-4-substituted benzylidenechromene derivatives via a metal-free radical annulation reaction of oxygen-containing 1,7-enynes with thiosulfonates has been developed. The reaction shows broad substrate scope, wide functional group tolerance, and moderate to excellent yields. Moreover, thiosulfonates were well driven to achieve the bifunctionalization reaction of oxo-1,7-enynes which derived from aliphatic alkynes. In addition, the (E)-configuration of the products was highly controlled by the structure of 1,7-enyne.

Dual Roles of Rongalite: Reductive Coupling Reaction to Construct Thiosulfonates Using Sulfonyl Hydrazides

A tunable and practical transformation of structurally diverse sulfonyl hydrazides into thiosulfonates in the presence of Rongalite (NaHSO 2·CH 2O) was developed. Transition-metal-free conditions, operational simplicity, and readily available reagents are the striking features of this protocol. It is the first example for the synthesis of thiosulfonates using sulfonyl hydrazides with the assistance of reductant. Additionally, the mechanistic studies revealed that this transformation probably undergoes via a reducing-coupling pathway.

Synthesis of Symmetrical Thiosulfonates via Cu(OTf)2-Catalyzed Reductive Homocoupling of Arenesulfonyl Chlorides

A variety of symmetrical thiosulfonates are synthesized via Cu-catalyzed reductive homocoupling of aryl sulfonyl chlorides. This protocol uses organic amine acting as a mild reductant and low-cost copper as an effective catalyst. Such a reductive coupling process features a broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. Related thiosulfonate products can also be converted into diverse functional molecules.

Nickel-Catalyzed Difunctionalization of Alkynyl Bromides with Thiosulfonates and N -Arylthio Succinimides: A Convenient Synthesis of 1,2-Thiosulfonylethenes and 1,1-Dithioethenes

An efficient nickel-catalyzed vicinal thiosulfonylation of 1-bromoalkynes with thiosulfonates in the presence of cesium carbonate is described. An operationally simple and highly regioselective atom transfer radical addition (ATRA) of alkynyl bromides provides a wide range of (E)-1,2-thiosulfonylethenes (α-aryl-β-thioarylvinyl sulfones) in moderate to high yields. The extensive substrate scope of both alkynyl bromides and thiosulfonates is explored with a broad range of functional groups. Indole-derived 1,1-bromoalkenes were also successfully explored in this 1,2-thiosulfonylation process. Moreover, the nickel-catalyzed geminal -dithiolation of alkynyl bromides with N -arylthio succinimides provides 1,1-dithioalkenes in high yields. The present protocol is reliable on gram scale, and a sequential one-pot bromination and thiosulfonylation of phenylacetylene is achieved in a scale-up synthesis. Following control experiments, a plausible mechanism is proposed to rationalize the experimental outcome and the vicinal thio-sulfonylation.

The organocatalytic synthesis of perfluorophenylsulfides: Via the thiolation of trimethyl(perfluorophenyl)silanes and thiosulfonates

The organic superbase t-Bu-P4-catalyzed direct thiolation of trimethyl(perfluorophenyl)silanes and thiosulfonates was developed. Yields of perfluorophenylsulfides of up to 97% under catalysis of 5 mol% t-Bu-P4 were achieved. This method was shown to provide an efficient way to construct the perfluorophenyl-sulfur bond under mild metal-free reaction conditions. This journal is

Diaryl disulfides and thiosulfonates as combretastatin A-4 analogues: Synthesis, cytotoxicity and antitubulin activity

Diaryl disulfides and diaryl thiosulfonates were synthesized with the two phenyl rings of all compounds bearing identical halide substituents. Because of structural similarity to the potent antimitotic natural product combretastatin A-4 (CA-4), the compounds were examined for inhibition of tubulin polymerization, and the thiosulfonates were more active than the disulfides. The nine thiosulfonates had IC50 values ranging from 1.2 to 9.1 μM, as compared with 1.3 μM obtained with CA-4. The compounds thus ranged from equipotent with CA-4 to 7-fold less active. The nine disulfides had IC50 values ranging from 1.2 to 5.1 μM, as compared with 0.54 μM obtained with CA-4. The compounds thus ranged from less than half as active as CA-4 to over 9-fold less active. The most active members of each group, 2 g and 3c, in the assembly assay were modeled into the colchicine site. Compound 3c had significant hydrophobic interactions with β-tubulin residues CYS 241 and ALA 250, and its thiosulfonate bridge made a hydrogen bond with β-tubulin residue ASN 258. Compound 2 g had hydrophobic interactions with β-tubulin residues ALA 250, CYS 241 and ALA 254, but there was no significant interaction of the disulfide bridge with tubulin.

CuCl2-promoted decomposition of sulfonyl hydrazides for the synthesis of thiosulfonates

Sulfonyl hydrazides recently received much attention as reagents for the introduction of sulfur-containing functional groups into organic compounds, because both sulfonyl and sulfenyl sources could be generated by the oxidation and decomposition of the sulfonyl hydrazides, respectively. However, the transformations of sulfonyl hydrazides into thiosulfonates, which could be produced by the reaction between sulfonyl and sulfenyl sources, have been less investigated. In this manuscript, we describe CuCl2-promoted selective synthesis of thiosulfonates from sulfonyl hydrazides. A variety of thiosulfonates were produced in moderate to good yields. The mechanism involving radical intermediates such as sulfonyl radical and thiyl radical was proposed on the basis of the previously reported references and mechanistic investigations. In addition, quantum chemical simulations revealed that Cu-promoted decomposition of sulfonyl hydrazides is thermodynamically viable in the developed conditions.
