- Scalable electrochemical reduction of sulfoxides to sulfides
-
A scalable reduction of sulfoxides to sulfides in a sustainable way remains an unmet challenge. This report discloses an electrochemical reduction of sulfoxides on a large scale (>10 g) under mild reaction conditions. Sulfoxides are activated using a substoichiometric amount of the Lewis acid AlCl3, which could be regeneratedviaa combination of inexpensive aluminum anode with chloride anion. This deoxygenation process features a broad substrate scope, including acid-labile substrates and drug molecules.

- Straightforward chemoselective access to unsymmetrical dithioacetals through a thiosulfonate homologation-nucleophilic substitution sequence
-
A sequential C1-homologation-nucleophilic substitution tactic is presented for the preparation of rare unsymmetrical dithioacetals. The judicious selection of thiosulfonates as convenient sulfur electrophilic sources - upon the homologation event conducted on an intermediate a-halothioether - guarantees the release of the non-reactive sulfonate group, thus enabling the subsequent nucleophilic displacement with an external added thiol [(hetero)- aromatic and/or aliphatic]. Uniform high yields and excellent chemocontrol were deduced during the extensive scope study, thus documenting the versatility of the direct technique for the preparation of these unique and manipulable materials.

- Consecutive C1-Homologation / Displacement Strategy for Converting Thiosulfonates into O,S-Oxothioacetals
-
A conceptually intuitive synthesis of oxothioacetals is reported starting from thiosulfonates as electrophilic sulfur donors. The installation of a reactive CH2Cl motif with a homologating carbenoid reagent, followed by the immediate nucleophilic displacement with alcoholic groups [(hetero)-aromatic, aliphatic] offer a convenient access to the title compounds. Genuine chemoselectivity is uniformly observed in the case of multi-functionalized systems. (Figure presented.).

- Photocatalytic Oxygenation of Sulfide and Alkenes by Trinuclear Ruthenium Clusters
-
Trinuclear Ru cluster photocatalysts that contain two Ru(II) photosensitizers and a Ru(II) reaction center are prepared, and their activity in the photocatalytic oxygenation of a sufide and alkenes is investigated. Photoirradiation (visible light) and the use of a Co salt ([Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2, as an electron acceptor) are found to be essential for these catalytic reactions. The O atom of the water solvent (pH 6.8) is transferred to the substrate by a stepwise electron transfer and deprotonation of an aqua ligand at the reaction center. Through these processes, the aqua ligand coordinated at the reaction center is converted to a RuV=O species, which is the active intermediate in the sulfide and alkene oxygenation.

-
Here we describe a potassium tert-butoxide-mediated regioselective direct C-S bond formation at the C(sp3)-H position of nitrotoluenes with disulfides in DMSO at room temperature. The developed reaction generated, in good yields, various dithioacetals having OMe, halogen, and NH2 functionalities at various positions of the arene rings of the disulfides. Interestingly, in the absence of nitrotoluene, diaryl disulfides and diselenides underwent one-carbon homologation to form dithioacetals and diselenoacetals. Synthesized dithioacetals were transformed into 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and 7-(bis(phenylthio)methyl)-1H-indole.

An efficient, chemoselective homologation of disulfides and diselenides to the corresponding dithio- and diselenoacetals has been developed via the addition of bromomethyllithium. Chemoselectivity is fully preserved in the presence of concomitant electrophilic sites decorating the substrates.

- New Synthetic Routes to Unsymmetrical Diorganyl Sulfides
-
A number of new methods for preparing unsymmetrical diorganyl sulfides was proposed. The methods rely on generation of thiolate anions from thiols, isothiuronium salts, and disulfides in the system hydrazine hydrate-KOH, followed by alkylation of the anions with alkyl halides. The hydrazine hydrate plays the role of medium and reducing agent, which prevents side thiol oxidation. The yield of sulfides reaches 98%. The reaction products are readily separated from the aqueous-hydrazine layer and purified by distillation. The yield of sulfides is reduced by a deficit of alkali and by increasing chain length and functionalization of alkyl groups in the alkyl halide. The reactivity of alkyl halides is independent of the nature of the halogen. From isothiuronium salts, 2-pyridyl sulfides were obtained in the highest yields.

- Generation and intramolecular cyclization of α-phenylsulfonyl and α-alkylsulfonyl radicals
-
α-Phenylsulfonyl radicals are generated by the reaction of diphenyl dithioacetals or phenyl α-chlorosulfides with tributyltin hydride. Alkyl phenyl dithioacetals react selectively with tributyltin hydride to give α-alkylsulfonyl radicals. 5-Exo-type of intramolecular cyclizations of these radicals are studied. The cyclization is most successful when the olefin is terminally substituted with an ester group. The cis/trans ratio of the cyclized product varies according to the reaction rates. With a faster cyclization, cis-isomer is the major product. A slower cyclization gives more trans-product.

Arylmethyl sulphoxides treated with trialkylsilyl halide and base undergo a Pummerer-type rearrangement to give α-siloxy and α-chlorosulphides.However, the presence of an ortho hydroxymethyl group results in the exclusive and efficient formation of the α-chlorosulphides, presumably mediated via an intramolecular attack to yield an alkoxysulphonium salt.These 2-(hydroxymethyl)aryl chloromethylsulphides can then be converted into the corresponding 3,1-benzoxathiins via an intramolecular cyclisation.Preliminary investigation of the chemistry of these 3,1-benzoxathiins, reveals that in one case, a novel base induced ring contraction occurs to yield a benzothiophene.

- REACTIONS OF SULFINYL CARBANIONS WITH ORGANOMETALLIC COMPOUNDS: PREPARATION OF
-
Sulfinyl carbanions, -Li+ (R = Ph, Me; R' = H, Ph) have been observed to have often low reactivity towards neutral transition metal organometallic systems.When reactions do occur they usually involve salt eliminations and

- Preparation and Reactions of Some Reagents for Umpolung under Phase-transfer Catalysis
-
Thioacetals 4a-h are used as reagents for umpolung.They can be prepared in high yields from inexpensive starting materials under phase-transfer catalysis (PTC).H/D-exchange reactions of thioacetals under PTC-conditions are described.Ethyl 1,3-dithiane-2-carboxylate (4a) served as a model compound in order to demonstrate possibilities and limitations of PTC-deprotonation and subsequent reaction with electrophiles compared with other procedures.

- Reaction of Pummerer Rearrangement Intermediates with Sulfides and Thiols. Synthesis of Sulfonium Salts and Dithioacetals
-
Sulfides (5) and thiols (6) react instantly with the Pummerer rearrangement intermediates (3) at 0 deg C to give sulfonium salts (7) and dithioacetals (8), respectively.
