Reusable cobalt-phthalocyanine in water: Efficient catalytic aerobic oxidative coupling of thiols to construct S-N/S-S bonds

A new aerobic oxidative coupling of thiols in water to construct sulfenamides or disulfides was developed, utilizing cobalt(ii)phthalocyanine-tetra-sodium sulfonate as the catalyst and O2 as the oxidant. The mother liquor could be recycled up to 20 times with negligible loss of activity and only a minor decrease of product yield.

Unsymmetrical disulfide and sulfenamide synthesis via reactions of thiosulfonates with thiols or amines

The reactivity of thiosulfonates with nucleophilic reagents was investigated. When reactions of thiosulfonates with thiols were performed, unsymmetrical disulfides were obtained in excellent yields. This procedure could employ numerous aryl or alkyl thiols. On the other hand, reactions of thiosulfonates with amines proceeded in the presence of a copper catalyst. The procedure was performed efficiently in air, and afforded the corresponding sulfenamides.
