An efficient and catalyst free methylthiolation of 4-(bromomethyl)-2H-chromen-2-ones with DMSO

The first simple, metal free, and efficient protocol has been established for the methylthiolation of structurally diverse 4-bromomethyl-2H-chromen-2-ones using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as methylthiolation source at higher temperature. The experimental m

A nickel-catalyzed silylation reaction of alkyl aryl sulfoxides with silylzinc reagents

Ni(PEt3)Cl2-catalyzed silylation of alkyl aryl sulfoxides with silylzinc reagents was carried out. This protocol allows alkyl aryl sulfoxides to convert to arylsilicon compounds under mild reaction conditions, tolerates a range of functional groups and is suitable for a wide scope of substrates.

Nucleophilic Amination and Etherification of Aryl Alkyl Thioethers

A transition-metal-free protocol capable of synthesizing diarylated aniline derivatives is reported. This method could be further employed to prepare aryl alkyl ethers. A wide range of thioethers, anilines, as well as alcohols were tolerated thanks to the mild reaction conditions. The strength of our method was demonstrated by performing a gram-scale reaction (20 mmol) followed by conversion of the nitrile group into synthetically useful aldehyde, ketone, and carboxylic acid.
