A palladium-catalysed aminosulfonylation process is used as the key-step in a one-pot, three-component sulfone synthesis. The process combines aryl-, heteroaryl- and alkenyl iodides with a sulfonyl unit and an electrophilic coupling fragment. The sulfonyl unit is delivered in the form of an aminosulfonamide, which then serves as a masked sulfinate. The sulfinate is combined, in situ, with an electrophilic coupling partner, such as a benzylic, allylic or alkyl halide, an electron-poor arene, or a cyclic epoxide, to provide the corresponding sulfone products in good to excellent yields. The mild reaction conditions and use of commercially available reaction components allows the easy preparation of a broad range of sulfones featuring a variety of functional groups. The process obviates the need to employ thiol starting materials, and oxidative operations.

Syntheses of (4-aminophenyl)-alkyl, -cycloalkyl and -aryl sulfones 2 were achieved both by alkylation of 4-(acetylamino)-benzenesulfinic acid (7) to the corresponding acetanilides 9 followed by hydrolysis and by oxidation of the appropriate (4-nitrophenyl)-sulfides 11 to (4-nitrophenyl)-sulfones 1 with subsequent Bechamp reduction.
