Chromatography-Free and Eco-Friendly Synthesis of Aryl Tosylates and Mesylates

Two chromatography-free and eco-friendly protocols have been developed to synthesize aryl tosylates and mesylates by the tosylation and mesylation of the corresponding hydroxyarenes, respectively. These protocols are superior to other known ones regarding

A simple preparation of aryl methanesulfonates by thermal decomposition of dry arenediazonium O-benzenedisulfonimides in methanesulfonic acid

Aryl methansulfonates 3 (18 examples) were easily prepared by thermal decomposition of dry arenediazonium o-benzenedisulfonimides 1 in methanesulfonic acid (2). The reactions were carried out at temperatures between 60 and 120°C for times between 0.5 and 8 h. The aryl methanesulfonates were obtained in reproducible yield of 70-90%, with few exceptions. In all cases the o-benzenedisulfonimide (4) could be recovered in good yields which can then be reused to prepare the salts 1. When thermal decomposition of salts 1 was carried out in trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (5) at 90-120°C for 1-2 h, aryl trifluoromethanesulfonates 6 were obtained in 73-78% yield (3 examples).

Sulfonyl esters 7. The second and third sequences in the Trithioorthoformate Reaction

A previous report has established the intermediacy of a sulfide-sulfonate ester in the one-pot conversion of an aryl mercaptan and a sulfonate ester into the corresponding trithioorthoformate. This report describes evidence for the sequential intermediacy of a bissulfide-sulfonate ester and a dithiosulfene in the conversion of the sulfide-sulfonate ester into the trithioorthoformate. A new sulfonate ester is shown to give the highest yield of trithioorthoformate.

MECHANISM OF THE REACTION OF (ARYLOXY)TRIMETHYLSTANNANE WITH METHANESULFONYL CHLORIDE - SOLVENT AND SUBSTITUENT EFFECTS ON THE RATE OF THE REACTION.

A kinetic study has been conducted on the reactions of (aryloxy)trimethylstannanes with methanesulfonyl chloride giving chlorotrimethylstannane and aryl methanesulfonates. The reaction was found to obey a second order kinetic equation. The solvent effect on the rate of the reaction appeared obscure although a small rate enhancement was observed in a polar solvent. Substituent effect of the aryloxyl group was found to be dependent on the solvent used while a clear isokinetic relationship was observed. A charge separated four-center transition state has been suggested for the reaction.
