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).

A copper-catalyzed multicomponent reaction of sulfonyl azides, alkynes, and allylamines affording 2,3-dihydro-1 H-imidazo-[1,2-a]indoles in moderate yields is reported. Four C-N bonds are constructed- by way of azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and double Ullmann-type coupling reactions in a one-pot process.

The regioselective gold-catalyzed hydration of CF3- and SF5-alkynes is described. The corresponding trifluoromethylated and pentasulfanylated ketones are obtained in up to 91% yield as single regioisomers showcasing the use of CF3 and SF5 as highly efficient directing groups in this reaction. Notably, this transformation represents the first use of CF3- and SF5-alkynes in gold catalysis.
