A series of gold(I)-catalyzed rearrangement reactions of alkynyl sulfoxides are reported. Homopropargylsulfoxides are rearranged to benzothiepinones or benzothiopines, while α-thioenones are formed in the reaction of propargylsulfoxides. The proposed mech

An efficient and practical oxidative coupling of thiols to symmetrical disulfides is developed at room temperature under aerobic conditions. The commercially available sodium methoxide solution 30 wt. % in methanol together with the air was used as a retrievable promoter system and green oxidant, respectively, for the preparation of symmetrical disulfides. The desired products were obtained in good to high yields by an economical procedure. No overoxidation of the symmetrical disulfides was observed, and various functional groups were well tolerated in the current protocol. Moreover, the new reagent reduces the generation of hazardous waste due to its high reusability. The reaction proceeded in the absence of light, and it was not inhibited by TEMPO. Also, the low yield of TEMPO-benzyl thiol adduct was detected under these conditions. Based on our experiments, a possible mechanism was proposed in the absence and presence of TEMPO.

The efficient and straightforward syntheses of silylthioethers and disulfides are presented. The synthetic methodologies are based on new rhodium complexes containing bulky N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands that turned out to be efficient catalysts in thiol and thiol-silane coupling reactions. These green protocols, which use easily accessible reagents, allow obtaining compounds containing S-Si and S-S bonds in solvent-free conditions. Additionally, preliminary tests on coupling of mono- and octahydro-substituted spherosilicates with selected thiols have proved to be very promising and showed that these catalytic systems can be used for the synthesis of a novel class of functionalized silsesquioxane derivatives.

Coupled catalysis using a riboflavin-derived organocatalyst and molecular iodine successfully promoted the aerobic oxidation of thiols to disulfides under metal-free mild conditions. The activation of molecular oxygen occurred smoothly at room temperature through the transfer of electrons from the iodine catalyst to the biomimetic flavin catalyst, forming the basis for a green oxidative synthesis of disulfides from thiols.

Organo disulfides represent an abundant class of compounds in chemical biology, pharmaceutical fields, and industry. They are traditionally synthesized by the oxidation of mercaptan in the presence of an organic ligand supported metal catalyst or toxic oxidants under harsh conditions. Here, we disclose a highly-efficient pathway in which disulfide is synthesized by organic boric acid and Na2S2O3 using the catalyst (NH4)3[CrMo6O18(OH)6], demonstrating a high activity and excellent selectivity. Various boric acid derivatives have been successfully transformed into the corresponding disulfides. Mechanistic insights have been furnished based on the observation of intermediate and control experiments.

The synthesis of amides from thiols through a cobalt-catalyzed aminocarbonylation is shown. After optimizing all the reaction parameters, the methodology makes possible the obtention of amides with variable yields, while competing reactions such as the formation of disulfides and ureas can be limited. The process works well with aromatic thiols with electron donating groups (EDG) whereas other thiols give reaction with lower yields. The previous process has been transferred and optimized into flow equipment, thus allowing using less CO in a safer way, and permitting the scaling up of the synthesis. Two drugs, moclobemide and itopride were prepared with this methodology, albeit only in the second case with good results. A mechanistic pathway is proposed.

Among external stimuli used to promote a chemical reaction, photocatalysis possesses a unique one—light. Photons are traceless reagents that provide an exclusive opportunity to alter chemoselectivity of the photocatalytic reaction varying the color of incident light. This strategy may be implemented by using a sensitizer capable to activate a specific reaction pathway depending on the excitation light. Herein, we use potassium poly(heptazine imide) (K-PHI), a type of carbon nitride, to generate selectively three different products from S-arylthioacetates simply varying the excitation light and otherwise identical conditions. Namely, arylchlorides are produced under UV/purple, sulfonyl chlorides with blue/white, and diaryldisulfides at green to red light. A combination of the negatively charged polyanion, highly positive potential of the valence band, presence of intraband states, ability to sensitize singlet oxygen, and multi-electron transfer is shown to enable this chromoselective conversion of thioacetates.
Substituted o-Aminophenols as Redox-Mediators in the Thiol Oxidation to Unsymmetrical Disulfides

A number of substituted o-aminophenols has been investigated as redox mediators of the thiol oxidation to disulfides. The electrooxidation of o-aminophenols leads to the corresponding o-iminobenzoquinones. These compounds react with thiols in the solution with a formation of disulfides. It was established that the use of 4,6-di-tert-butyl-2-(tert-butylamino)phenol as a redox mediator can reduce the overpotential of the thiol oxidation by 0.2-1.4 V depending on the nature of the coupling thiols. The unsymmetrical disulfides with alkyl, aryl, and heteroaryl substituents were obtained as the result of the indirect electrosynthesis.

The invention discloses a preparation method of diphenyl disulfide compounds. The preparation method comprises the following steps: stirring an isopropyl magnesium halide Grignard reagent and a substituted halogen benzene compound in an organic solvent at -78 DEG C to -20 DEG C for 30-90 minutes to obtain a thoroughly halogen-magnesium exchanged substituted phenyl Grignard reagent; and adding dichlorodisulfide into the reaction system, slowly heating to room temperature after the reaction is finished, quenching the reaction by using a saturated ammonium chloride aqueous solution, extracting byusing ethyl acetate or diethyl ether, drying by using anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrating the organic phase to obtain the diphenyl disulfide compounds. According to the method, the diphenyl disulfide compounds are prepared by taking the phenyl Grignard reagent as a raw material through a one-pot method, and has the following advantages: the synthetic route is short, the preparation process is simple, the cost is low, the operation is easy, the yield is excellent, and the industrial production is easy.

Organosulfur compounds show cytotoxic potential towards many tumor cell lines. Disulfides and thiosulfonates act through apoptotic processes, inducing proteins associated with apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and the unfolded protein response. Three p-substituted symmetric diaryl disulfides and three diaryl thiosulfonates were synthesized and analyzed for inhibition of tubulin polymerization and for human cancer cell cytotoxic activity against seven tumor cell lines and a non-tumor cell line. S-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-methoxybenzenesulfonothioate (6) exhibited inhibition of tubulin polymerization and showed the best antiproliferative potential, especially against the 786-0 cell line, being six times more selective as compared with the non-tumor cell line. In addition, compound 6 was able to activate caspase-3 after 24 and 48 h treatments of the 786-0 cell line and induced cell-cycle arrest in the G2/M stage at the highest concentration evaluated at 24 and 48 h. Compound 6 was able to cause complete inhibition of proliferation, inducing the death of 786-0 cells, by increasing the number of cells at G2/M and greater activation of caspase-3.
