Ligand-free Ni-catalyzed reductive cleavage of inert carbon - Sulfur bonds

A catalytic reductive cleavage of C(sp2) - and C(sp3) - SMe bonds under ligandless conditions is presented. The method is characterized by its wide scope and high chemoselectivity profile including challenging substrate combinations, allowing the design of orthogonal and site-selectivity approaches.

ALKYLATION OF AROMATIC COMPOUNDS WITH PUMMERER REARRANGEMENT INTERMEDIATES. APPLICATION TO THE PREPARATION OF METHYL-ARYL COMPOUNDS

Pummerer intermediates generated from dimethylsulfoxide reacted with aromatic compounds in the presence of tin(IV) chloride to give methylthiomethylaryl products which were in turn desulfurized to methylaryl compounds with Raney-Ni.
