Intermolecular [2 + 2] Photocycloaddition of α,β-Unsaturated Sulfones: Catalyst-Free Reaction and Catalytic Variants

2-Aryl-1-sulfonyl-substituted cyclobutanes were prepared in an intermolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition from various α,β-unsaturated sulfones and olefins upon irradiation at λ = 300 nm (26 examples, 60-99% yield). Lewis acids catalyzed the [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of 2-benzimidazolyl styryl sulfones. At short wavelengths, the latter substrates underwent C-S bond cleavage but AlBr3 (5 mol %) allowed for an intermolecular reaction with 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene at longer wavelengths. A chiral-at-metal Lewis acid (2 mol %) facilitated an enantioselective reaction (up to 77% ee).

PhB(OH)2-Promoted Electrochemical Sulfuration-Formyloxylation of Styrenes and Selectfluor-Mediated Oxidation-Olefination

We report a PhB(OH)2-promoted electrochemical sulfuration-formyloxylation reaction of styrenes employing commercially available thiophenols/thiols as thiolating agents. Specifically, metal catalysts and external chemical oxidants are not needed in the reaction for the formation of β-formyloxy sulfides, and these sulfides can be further converted to (E)-vinyl sulfones via the Selectfluor-mediated oxidation-olefination. Notably, on the basis of this electrochemical oxidation strategy, β-hydroxy sulfide, β-formyloxy sulfoxide, β-formyloxy sulfone, and (E)-vinyl sulfoxide can also be easily prepared.

Electrochemical sulfonylation of alkenes with sulfonyl hydrazides: A metal- And oxidant-free protocol for the synthesis of (: E)-vinyl sulfones in water

An efficient electrochemical transformation of a variety of alkenes and sulfonyl hydrazides into vinyl sulfones with a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium iodide in water is reported. The reaction proceeds smoothly to afford vinyl sulfones with good selectivities and yields at room temperature under air in an undivided cell. Cyclic voltammograms and control experiments have been performed to provide preliminary insight into the reaction mechanism. The key features of this reaction include using pure water as solvent, transition metal- and oxidant-free conditions, and being easily scaled up to gram-scale synthesis. This journal is

Cu-catalyzed dehydrogenative olefinsulfonation of Alkyl arenes

A copper-catalyzed reaction protocol for the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzenes into styrene derivatives has been developed. This reaction procedure proceeded well under mild reaction conditions, providing a practical and efficient strategy for the rapid assembly of biologically and pharmaceutically significant molecules, such as vinyl sulfone. Simple alkyl arenes were functionalized via consecutive β-elimination in the presence of N-sulfonylbenzo[d]imidazole with broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance.

In addition to various styrenes, sodium arylsulfinates with either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups were tolerated.
