Photocatalyst-free visible light driven synthesis of (E)-vinyl sulfones from cinnamic acids and arylazo sulfones

A photocatalyst-free visible light mediated decarboxylative sulfono functionalization protocol has been explored for the synthesis of (E)-vinyl sulfones from cinnamic acids and bench-stable arylazo sulfones. The latter have been utilized as sulfonyl radic

Manganese-Catalyzed Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling of Alcohols with Sulfones: A Tool to Access Highly Substituted Vinyl Sulfones

The development of first-row-transition-metal catalysts that can match with the reactivities of the noble metals is considered to be challenging yet very much a desirable goal in homogeneous catalysis. It has become even more fascinating to develop processes where these metals show a unique reactivity and selectivity than their higher congeners. Herein, we report on the catalytic activity of a pincer complex of the abundant earth metal manganese for an unprecedented acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alkyl sulfones with alcohols. Thus, highly functionalized vinyl sulfones were obtained in moderate to good yields. Both benzylic and aliphatic alcohols could be utilized, and several functional groups including bromides and iodides are tolerated under the reaction conditions. The reaction is environmentally benign, producing dihydrogen and water as byproducts. Preliminary mechanistic experiments involving kinetic, deuterium-labeling, and NMR experiments were performed.

Eosin Y (EY) Photoredox-Catalyzed Sulfonylation of Alkenes: Scope and Mechanism

Alkyl- and aryl vinyl sulfones were obtained by eosin Y (EY)-mediated visible-light photooxidation of sulfinate salts and the reaction of the resulting S-centered radicals with alkenes. Optimized reaction conditions, the sulfinate and alkene scope, and X-ray structural analyses of several reaction products are provided. A detailed spectroscopic study explains the reaction mechanism, which proceeds through the EY radical cation as key intermediate oxidizing the sulfinate salts.
