- A photocatalyst-free visible-light-mediated solvent-switchable route to stilbenes/vinyl sulfones from β-nitrostyrenes and arylazo sulfones
-
Photocatalyst-free visible-light-mediated reactions, based on the presence of a visible-light-absorbing functional group in the starting material itself in order to exclude the often costly, hazardous, degradable and difficult to remove or recover photoredox catalysts, have been gaining momentum recently. We have employed this approach to develop a denitrative photocatalyst-free visible-light-mediated protocol for the arylation/sulfonylation of β-nitrostyrenes employing arylazo sulfones (bench-stable photolabile compounds) in a switchable solvent-controlled manner. Arylazo sulfones served as the aryl and sulfonyl radical precursors under blue LED irradiation for the synthesis oftrans-stilbenes and (E)-vinyl sulfones in CH3CN and dioxane/H2O 2?:?1, respectively. The absence of any metal, photocatalyst and additive; excellent selectivity (E-stereochemistry) and solvent-switchability; and the use of visible light and ambient temperature are the prime assets of the developed method. Moreover, we report the first photocatalyst-free visible light-driven route to synthesize stilbenes and vinyl sulfones from readily available β-nitrostyrenes.

- Eosin Y (EY) Photoredox-Catalyzed Sulfonylation of Alkenes: Scope and Mechanism
-
Alkyl- and aryl vinyl sulfones were obtained by eosin Y (EY)-mediated visible-light photooxidation of sulfinate salts and the reaction of the resulting S-centered radicals with alkenes. Optimized reaction conditions, the sulfinate and alkene scope, and X-ray structural analyses of several reaction products are provided. A detailed spectroscopic study explains the reaction mechanism, which proceeds through the EY radical cation as key intermediate oxidizing the sulfinate salts.

- CuSO4?·5H2O-H-phosphonate-catalyzed intermolecular C-S bond formation: Synthesis of (E)-vinyl alkylsulfones from alkynes and DMSO
-
A CuSO4?·5H2O-H-phosphonate-catalyzed synthesis of (E)-vinyl alkylsulfones from alkynes and widely available DMSO was developed. The present protocol provides an alternative approach to various vinyl sulfones, with the advantages of cheap catalysts, readily available starting materials, operational simplicity and high stereo- and regioselectivity.
