- Synthesis of Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical Thiosulfonates from Disulfides through Electrochemically Induced Disulfide Bond Metathesis and Site-Selective Oxidation
-
The anodic generation of symmetrical and unsymmetrical thiosulfonates is presented. First, the oxidation of disulfides yielding symmetrical thiosulfonates was realized. The direct synthesis is performed using a simple quasi-divided cell design, whereby using a supporting electrolyte is unnecessary. Its principle was then expanded to the conversion of unsymmetrical disulfides that were generated in situ through metathesis of two symmetrical disulfides. This enables a direct access to unsymmetrical thiosulfonates without any pre-functionalization or elaborate synthesis of the starting materials for the first time. The reaction scope was investigated by converting differently functionalized aliphatic and aromatic disulfides in moderate to very good yields. Furthermore, a sensitivity assessment for an improved reproducibility and a robustness screen to determine the compatibility of the reaction against functional groups were performed.

- The organocatalytic synthesis of perfluorophenylsulfides: Via the thiolation of trimethyl(perfluorophenyl)silanes and thiosulfonates
-
The organic superbase t-Bu-P4-catalyzed direct thiolation of trimethyl(perfluorophenyl)silanes and thiosulfonates was developed. Yields of perfluorophenylsulfides of up to 97% under catalysis of 5 mol% t-Bu-P4 were achieved. This method was shown to provide an efficient way to construct the perfluorophenyl-sulfur bond under mild metal-free reaction conditions. This journal is

- Nonheme iron-thiolate complexes as structural models of sulfoxide synthase active sites
-
Two mononuclear iron(ii)-thiolate complexes have been prepared that represent structural models of the nonheme iron enzymes EgtB and OvoA, which catalyze the O2-dependent formation of carbon-sulfur bonds in the biosynthesis of thiohistidine compounds. The series of Fe(ii) complexes reported here feature tripodal N4 chelates (LA and LB) that contain both pyridyl and imidazolyl donors (LA = (1H-imidazol-4-yl)-N,N-bis((pyridin-2-yl)methyl)methanamine; LB = N,N-bis((1-methylimidazol-2-yl)methyl)-2-pyridylmethylamine). Further coordination with monodentate aromatic or aliphatic thiolate ligands yielded the five-coordinate, high-spin Fe(ii) complexes [FeII(LA)(SMes)]BPh4 (1) and [FeII(LB)(SCy)]BPh4 (2), where SMes = 2,4,6-trimethylthiophenolate and SCy = cyclohexanethiolate. X-ray crystal structures revealed that 1 and 2 possess trigonal bipyramidal geometries formed by the N4S ligand set. In each case, the thiolate ligand is positioned cis to an imidazole donor, replicating the arrangement of Cys- and His-based substrates in the active site of EgtB. The geometric and electronic structures of 1 and 2 were analyzed with UV-vis absorption and M?ssbauer spectroscopies in tandem with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Exposure of 1 and 2 to nitric oxide (NO) yielded six-coordinate FeNO adducts that were characterized with infrared and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopies, confirming that these complexes are capable of binding diatomic molecules. Reaction of 1 and 2 with O2 causes oxidation of the thiolate ligands to disulfide products. The implications of these results for the development of functional models of EgtB and OvoA are discussed.

- Iron(III)-Catalyzed Radical Cross-Coupling of Thiols with Sodium Sulfinates: A Facile Access to Thiosulfonates
-
A convenient and efficient synthesis of symmetrical and asymmetric thiosulfonates from thiols and sodium sulfinates is reported. The protocol involves iron(III)-catalyzed formation of sulfenyl and sulfonyl radicals in situ under aerobic conditions and their subsequent cross-coupling to afford thiosulfonates in 83-96% yield. The utilization of readily available, nontoxic, and inexpensive iron(III) as a catalyst and atmospheric oxygen as an oxidant is within the confines of green and sustainable chemistry.

- Fast and efficient green synthesis of thiosulfonate S-esters by microwave-supported permanganate oxidation of symmetrical disulfides
-
Potassium permanganate absorbed on copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate has been found to be an efficient, inexpensive, and green oxidation agent for the synthesis of "symmetrical" thiosulfonate S-esters by oxidation of the corresponding symmetrical disulfides. The oxidation reactions were carried out under solvent-free reaction conditions within 15 min under the influence of microwave irradiation, as well as (for comparison) supported by conventional heating, to afford yields of the thiosulfonate S-esters in the range of 60-83%. The oxidation reaction appears to proceed (at least partly) via an intermediate symmetrical vic-disulfoxide.

- Facile synthesis of symmetric thiosulfonates by oxidation of disulfide with oxone/MX (MX = KBr, KCl, NaBr and NaCl)
-
Abstract A new method is described for the oxidation of aliphatic- and aromatic disulfides containing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups to their corresponding thiosulfonates using oxone in combination with the MX (MX = KBr, KCl, NaBr and NaCl). No obvious electronic effects influence the yields of thiosulfonates. Avoiding the usage of toxic and unstable reagents, mild reaction conditions, short reaction times and cost-effectiveness are advantages of this methodology when likened to known methods for thiosulfonates syntheses.

- Dinitrogen Tetroxide Impregnated Activated Charcoal (N2O 4/Charcoal): Selective Oxidation of Sulfides to Sulfoxides and Bisulfides to Thiosulfonates
-
Dinitrogen tetroxide was easily impregnated on activated charcoal to give a stable heterogeneous reagent (N2O4/charcoal). The chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides in the presence of different sensitive functional groups was achieved using this reagent in CH 2Cl2 at room temperature. Dialkyl sulfides were also selectively converted to their corresponding sulfoxides in the presence of diaryl or alkyl-aryl sulfides. Oxidation of disulfides to thiosulfonates without any over oxidation was also performed at room temperature by this system.

- Dinitrogen tetroxide supported on polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP-N2O4): A new nitrosating and coupling agent for thiols and a selective oxidant for sulfides and disulfides
-
Gaseous N2O4 was immobilized on polyvinylpyrrolidone to give a stable polymeric reagent. Thiols were converted to S-nitrosothiols (thionitrites) using this new nitrosating agent in n-hexane or CHCl3 at 10°C. With this reagent, thiols were also converted into their corresponding disulfides. Selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and disulfides to thiosulfonates can also be achieved by this reagent at room temperature. By using an excess of the reagent, the selective one-pot synthesis of thiosulfonates from thiols at room temperature was also performed.
