A magnetically induced nano copper-catalyzed efficient and mild route for the synthesis of diaryl and alkyl/aryl sulfones from aryl/alkyl halides and tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) has been developed. A variety of aryl and alkyl sulfones have been obtained in very good to excellent yields. Sulfones containing molecules have medicinal relevance as they are known to possess various activities such as antifungal, anti-HIV, antitumor, and anticancer. Herein, a magnetically induced nano copper-catalyzed efficient and mild route for the synthesis of biaryl and alkyl/aryl sulfones from aryl/alkyl halides and tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) has been developed. A variety of aryl and alkyl sulfones have been obtained in very good to excellent yields. In this newly developed protocol TosMIC acts as sulfonyl source. The catalyst can magnetically be recovered and recycled five times without significant loss in activity.

Sulfonyl chlorides were reduced to anhydrous sulfinate salts with magnesium under sonication. These sulfinates were alkylated to sulfones with alkyl chlorides in the presence of catalytic sodium iodide under sonication. A variety of aliphatic sulfones was efficiently prepared by this one-pot two-step procedure.

Background: Sulfoxides and sulfones have been in the center of attention due to their wide range of promises in various approaches. The functional groups presented in these compounds serve as important building blocks in numerous natural, pharmeceutical and agricultural compounds. These deriatives have been prepared through a multitude of routes which were accompanied by several drawbacks. Therefore, there has been an ever-increasing interest to find a new methodology that leads to the production of these compounds via an environmentally benign path bringing about high yields. Recently, gem-dihydroperoxides have attracted much attention due to their oxidizing power and they have been utilized in several oxidation processes. Methods: We carried out a chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones on treatment with urea-2,2-dihydroperoxypropane, a solid oxidant composed of equal amounts of 2,2-dihydroperoxypropane and urea, using THF as the solvent under catalyst-free conditions at room temprature. Results: Sulfides possessing a variety of substitutions namely dialkyl, diaryl, ally l and alkyl-aryl were subjected to the optimized reaction conditions and they could successfully afford different amounts of sulfoxides and sulfones depending on the amount of the oxidant utilized. Based on the results, electron-donating groups accelerated the reaction while electron-withdrawing substituents lowered the reactivity. Conclusion: Urea-2,2-dihydroperoxypropane as a solid oxidant which can be stored for several months without any loss in its activity has proved its capability to oxidize sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones under catalyst-free and mild conditions. This approach is a cost-effective and environmentally benign methodology via which the products have been synthesized in high yields and short reaction times.

A recyclable, inexpensive, non-toxic and environmentally benign catalytic system comprised of magnetically separable copper ferrite (CuFe 2O4) nanoparticles has been developed for the synthesis of diaryl, alkyl/aryl sulfones. Arylsulfinic acid salts are coupled with various alkyl/aryl halides/boronic acids to afford the corresponding diaryl, alkyl/aryl sulfones in good to excellent yields under the identical catalytic system. A wide range of functional group tolerance, with facile recovery of the catalyst by application of an external magnetic field, and consistently high catalytic efficiency for five consecutive cycles render the protocol operationally attractive.
One-pot three-component sulfone synthesis exploiting palladium-catalysed aryl halide aminosulfonylation

, p. 222 - 228 (2014/01/06)
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.

A new method is reported for the synthesis of alkyl aryl sulfones by alkylation of sodium arenesulfinates with unactivated alkyl chlorides using ionic liquid based on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BmimBF 4) mixed with water (2:1) as reaction media. The ionic liquid can be reused and the procedure gives the sulfones in moderate yields.
