- A General Photocatalytic Route to Prenylation
-
Prenylation is an essential reaction on which nature relies to modify properties of molecules and build terpenoids, but remains a challenging chemical reaction. Aiming to capitalize on recent advances in photocatalysis to easily and cleanly generate a broad range of carbon based radicals, we have developed a prenyl transfer reagent that is captured by transiently generated radicals. The reagent can be made in bulk, is bench stable, and broadly applicable such that it can be used with existing photocatalytic methods with very few changes to reaction conditions. Ultimately, this provides a true drop-in solution for prenylation, expanding the scope of substrates that can be readily prenylated.

- SO2 conversion to sulfones: Development and mechanistic insights of a sulfonylative Hiyama cross-coupling
-
A Pd-catalyzed Hiyama cross-coupling reaction using SO2 is described. The use of silicon-based nucleophiles leads to the formation of allyl sulfones under mild conditions with a broad functional group tolerance. Control experiments coupled with DFT calculations shed light on the key steps of the reaction mechanism, revealing the crucial role of a transient sulfinate anion.

- Selective C - S bond formation via Fe-catalyzed allylic substitution
-
In contrast to the formation of C - O and C - N bonds it was only recently that the selective C - S bond formation by means of transition metal complexes moved more into the center of research. This is somewhat surprising given the fact that the sulfur at

- Palladium-Catalyzed Allylic Sulfinate-Sulfone Rearrangements
-
Upon treatment with a zero-valent palladium catalyst, tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium, in tetrahydrofuran under mild conditions allylic p-toluenesulfinates underwent α- or γ-rearrangements of the sulfonyl group via ionic intermediates to give allylic sulfones.The regiochemistry of the rearrangements depends on the character of the intermediary allylic cationic carbons generated and the steric hindrance involved therein.Keywords - allylic sulfinate; allylic sulfone; palladium catalyst; sulfinate-sulfone rearrangement; regiochemistry; tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium.

-
The allylic substitution of stable enolates derived from diethyl malonate, ethyl cyanoacetate, ethyl benzylsulfonylacetate, bis(benzenesulfonyl)methane and sodium p-toluenesulfinate by a variety of allylic esters and sulfones has been investigated.Suitable ligands and reaction conditions have been found to ensure high yields, and in some cases considerable control of the regioselectivity of the reaction.
