Sulfoxide and Sulfone Synthesis via Electrochemical Oxidation of Sulfides

The oxidation of diaryl sulfides and aryl alkyl sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones under electrochemical conditions is reported. Sulfoxides are selectively obtained in good yield under a constant current of 5 mA for 10 h in DMF, while sulfones are formed as the major product under a constant current of 10 or 20 mA for 10 h in MeOH. The oxygen of both the sulfoxide and sulfone function is derived from water.

Method for preparing visible light promoted asymmetric sulfoxide compound

The invention belongs to the field of organic synthetic chemistry, particularly relates to a preparation method of an asymmetric sulfoxide compound, and particularly discloses a method for synthesizing the asymmetric sulfoxide compound based on visible light catalysis. A compound shown in the formula I and a compound shown in the formula II are added to a reactor, a mixture of an organic solvent and water is added as a reaction solvent, the reactor is connected to air, under the irradiation of visible light, a reaction at a room temperature is performed for 16-40 hours; and after a detection reaction of a TLC thin layer chromatography plate is completed, pure water is added, then the extraction is performed, extract liquid is combined and dried, the extract liquid is concentrated and purified to obtain a compound shown in the formula III, and the compound is the asymmetric sulfoxide compound. The reaction conditions are mild, energy is clean, a strong oxidant is not needed, the safetyof the reaction is improved, the pollution caused by using a metal reagent is avoided, and the reaction cost is saved.

Palladium/PC-Phos-Catalyzed Enantioselective Arylation of General Sulfenate Anions: Scope and Synthetic Applications

Herein we reported an efficient palladium-catalyzed enantioselective arylation of both alkyl and aryl sulfenate anions to deliver various chiral sulfoxides in good yields (up to 98%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) by the use of our developed chiral O,P-ligands (PC-Phos). PC-Phos are easily prepared in short steps from inexpensive commercially available starting materials. The single-crystal structure of the PC4/PdCl2 showed that a rarely observed 11-membered ring was formed via the O,P-coordination with the palladium(II) center. The salient features of this method include general substrate scope, ease of scale-up, applicable to the late-stage modification of bioactive compounds, and the synthesis of a marketed medicine Sulindac.
