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

Iodine/Manganese Dual Catalysis for Oxidative Dehydrogenation Coupling of Amines with Thiols

A novel dual catalytic system of iodine and manganese is used for the first time for oxidative dehydrogenation coupling of amines with thiols during aerobic oxidation. Sulfenamides are synthesized via this approach with moderate to high efficiencies. The mechanistic studies indicate that activated MnO2 is an electron transfer bridge for assisting iodine in completing the catalytic cycle.

Efficient Synthesis of Sulfinate Esters and Sulfinamides via Activated Esters of p -Toluenesulfinic Acid

Sulfinate esters were prepared by the process of activating p -toluenesulfinic acid with either cyanuric chloride, methanesulfonyl chloride, or 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC-HCl). Activation of p -toluenesulfinic acid with cyanuric chloride led to the formation of sulfinate esters that were accompanied by the formation of the corresponding sulfones. The use of methanesulfonyl chloride for activation via methanesulfonic p -toluenesulfinic anhydride afforded mixtures of sulfinate esters and methanesulfonates. The use of the carbodiimide EDC proved to yield the best results with the highly selective formation of the target sulfinate esters. The use of trimethylacetic p -toluenesulfinic anhydride or cyanuric chloride to achieve the synthesis of sulfinamides proved to be ineffective due to poor chemoselectivity of the nucleophilic attack on the activated p -toluenesulfinic acid anhydride. Ultimately, the use of EDC-HCl to form the sulfinamides proved to be the best pathway for synthesis.

Copper-Catalyzed Transsulfinamidation of Sulfinamides as a Key Step in the Preparation of Sulfonamides and Sulfonimidamides

Secondary or tertiary sulfinamides are prepared by copper-catalyzed transsulfinamidation of primary sulfinamides with O-benzoyl hydroxylamines. Subsequent oxidations of the resulting products lead to the corresponding sulfonamides. Treatment of N-aryl sulfinamides with O-benzoyl hydroxylamines under copper catalysis provides N-aryl sulfonimidamides.

Copper-Catalyzed Oxidative Synthesis of Sulfinamides Using Thiols or Disulfides with Amines

Copper-catalyzed coupling of thiols with amines was used to synthesize numerous sulfinamides in excellent yields. Sulfenamides or sulfonamides were also formed as reaction byproducts albeit in trace quantities. The procedure is carried out as a one step a

Fast and efficient synthesis of sulfinamides by the oxidation of sulfenamides using potassium fluoride and m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid

A procedure for the synthesis of N-alkyl-, N-cycloalkyl-, N,N-dialkyl-, and N-arylarenesulfinamides from the corresponding sulfenamides using KF/m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (CPBA) in CH3CN-H2O is described. High efficiency (fast react

Copper-catalyzed formation of sulfur-nitrogen bonds by dehydrocoupling of thiols with amines

Copper-catalyzed formation of sulfur-nitrogen bonds can be performed by a dehydrocoupling of aryl thiols with amines. Sulfenamides or sulfonamides can be produced by the use of a copper catalyst in air or under oxygen atmosphere. Furthermore, a reaction involving the combination of a palladium catalyst and a copper catalyst selectively afforded sulfinamides.

Electrochemical oxidation of N-p-toluenesulfinamides

Matrix presented Contrasting and interesting electrochemical behavior is observed in anodic oxidation of N-substituted p-toluenesulfinamides under controlled current conditions. For sulfinamides derived from secondary alkylamines and primary arylamines, the N-sulfinyl group is removed and the corresponding amines are formed; for sulfinamides derived from primary alkylamines, sulfur oxidation yields the corresponding sulfonamides in good yields.

Preparation of racemic and enantiopure arenesulfonimidoyl azoles - New compounds chiral on sulfur

The novel arenesulfonimidoyl imidazoles 7a-j and nitrotriazoles 9d-j were obtained in good yield from the corresponding arenesulfonimidoyl chlorides 6a-j. The reaction of optically pure sulfonimidoyl chlorides 6 with imidazole resulted in the first reported optically active arenesulfonimidoyl imidazoles 7 with high enantiomeric purities (ee up to >99%); the stereochemical course of the reaction (inversion or retention at sulfur) is shown to be strongly dependent on the aryl substituent. By contrast, the analogous reaction of optically pure compounds 6 with 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole led to racemic arenesulfonimidoyl nitrotriazoles 9. Optically active compounds of this type, (S)-9f (ee 99%) and (R)-9f (ee 92%), were obtained by semi-preparative chiral HPLC. The optically active arenesulfonimidoyl imidazolium salt (RS,RC)-8j was prepared by diastereoselective methylation (de >90%) of the optically pure imidazole derivative (RS,RC)-7j.
