Polystyrene and silica gel-supported, AlCl3-catalyzed preparation of diaryl sulfoxides from arenes and thionyl chloride

A simple, chemoselective, and efficient method has been developed for direct conversion of arenes to symmetrical diaryl sulfoxides using thionyl chloride in the presence of a catalytic amount of cross-linked polystyrene-supported aluminium chloride (Ps-AlCl3) and silica gel-supported aluminium chloride (SiO2-AlCl3). These solid acid catalysts are stable and can be easily recovered and reused without appreciable change in their efficiency. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

Synthesis of o-Aryloxy Triarylsulfonium Salts via Aryne Insertion into Diaryl Sulfoxides

The aryne insertion into "S-O" bond has been validated recently. This technology is elusively applied to the synthesis of thioethers. In contrast to the reported cases, the reaction described furnished o-aryloxy triarylsulfonium salts, in lieu of thioethe

Lithium/Sodium Perchlorate Catalyzed Synthesis of Symmetrical Diaryl Sulfoxides

Synthesis of diaryl sulfoxides from aromatics and thionyl chloride catalyzed by LiClO4/NaClO4 at room temperature is described. Mild reaction conditions, simple work-up, inexpensive and easily available catalysts are important and attractive features of this method.

An ionic liquid-mediated expeditious route to the syntheses of diaryl sulfoxides

A fast and efficient protocol is proposed for the synthesis of diaryl sulfoxides in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloroaluminate, [bmim]Cl·AlCl3, N=0.67, by employing arenes and thionyl chloride. The ionic liquid plays a dual role of Lewis acid catalyst and solvent, under ambient conditions, offering good yields of the product. The influence of the Lewis acidity of the ionic liquid on the extent of conversion is studied.

Highly Rapid and Direct Synthesis of Diaryl Sulfoxides

Aromatic compounds react smoothly with thionyl chloride in the presence of 10 mol% of water at ambient temperature to afford the corresponding symmetrical diaryl sulfoxides in good to excellent yields with high regioselectivity.

Scandium triflate catalyzed one-pot synthesis of diaryl sulfoxides

Arenes react smoothly with thionyl chloride in the presence of a catalytic amount of scandium triflate at ambient temperature to afford the corresponding symmetrical diaryl sulfoxides in excellent yields with high regioselectivity.

Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid catalyzed preparation of symmetrical diaryl sulfoxides from arenes and thionyl chloride

The preparation of symmetrical diaryl sulfoxides from thionyl chloride and arenes catalyzed by trifluoromethanesulfonic acid is described. The reaction is characterized by its mildness, high yields, selectivity, and ease of workup.
