An efficient electrochemical transformation of a variety of alkenes and sulfonyl hydrazides into vinyl sulfones with a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium iodide in water is reported. The reaction proceeds smoothly to afford vinyl sulfones with good selectivities and yields at room temperature under air in an undivided cell. Cyclic voltammograms and control experiments have been performed to provide preliminary insight into the reaction mechanism. The key features of this reaction include using pure water as solvent, transition metal- and oxidant-free conditions, and being easily scaled up to gram-scale synthesis. This journal is

Oxidative stress is constantly involved in the etiopathogenesis of an ever-widening range of neurodegenerative diseases. As a consequence, effective repression of cellular oxidative stress to a redox homeostatic condition is a promising and feasible strategy to treat, or at least retard the progression of, such disorders. Nrf2, a primary orchestrator of cellular antioxidant response machine, is responsible for detoxifying and compensating for deleterious oxidative stress via transcriptional activation of a diverse array of antioxidant biomolecules. In the framework of our persistent interest in disclosing small molecules that interfere with cellular redox-regulating machinery, we report herein the synthesis, optimization, and biological assessment of 47 vinyl sulfone scaffold-bearing small molecules, most of which exhibit robust neuroprotective effect against H2O2-mediated lesions to PC12 cells. After initial screening, the most potent neuroprotective compounds 9b and 9c with marginal cytotoxicity were selected for the follow-up studies. Our results demonstrate that their neuroprotective effects are attributed to the up-regulation of a panel of antioxidant genes and corresponding gene products. Further mechanistic studies indicate that Nrf2 is indispensable for the cellular performances of 9b and 9c, arising from the fact that silence of Nrf2 gene drastically nullifies their protective action. Taken together, 9b and 9c discovered in this work merit further development as neuroprotective candidates for the treatment of oxidative stress-mediated pathological conditions.

A simple and gram-scale synthesis of β-sulfonyl styrenes has been developed starting from one-pot PPA (polyphosphoric acid)-catalyzed 1,1-diacetoxylation of arylacetaldehydes (ArCH2CHO) with acetic anhydride (Ac2O) followed by deacetoxylative sulfonylation of the resulting 1,1-diacetate intermediate with sodium sulfinates (RSO2Na) in good yields under solvent-free conditions.
