A Br?nsted acidic ionic solid comrising tungstate-functionaized polyorganosiloxane framework (PMO-IL-WO42?) efficiently catalysed aerobic oxidation of sulfides in aqueous medium. The catalyst can selectively produce sulfoxides or sulfones by running the reaction at room temperature or 50 °C, respectively. Because of the ionic liquid-based charged surface containing hydrophobic organic functional groups and hydrophilic sulfonic acid group, the synergestic hydrophobic/hydrophilic and redox effect of PMO-IL-WO42- as water-friendly interfacial nanocatalyst simplifies and enhances the activity and selectivity toward the target sulfoxides or sulfones in water. Moreover, the PMO-IL-WO42- nanocatalyst exhibited outstanding stability and activity and can be recycled eight reaction runs without any significant activity and selectivity loss.

A magnetically induced nano copper-catalyzed efficient and mild route for the synthesis of diaryl and alkyl/aryl sulfones from aryl/alkyl halides and tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) has been developed. A variety of aryl and alkyl sulfones have been obtained in very good to excellent yields. Sulfones containing molecules have medicinal relevance as they are known to possess various activities such as antifungal, anti-HIV, antitumor, and anticancer. Herein, a magnetically induced nano copper-catalyzed efficient and mild route for the synthesis of biaryl and alkyl/aryl sulfones from aryl/alkyl halides and tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) has been developed. A variety of aryl and alkyl sulfones have been obtained in very good to excellent yields. In this newly developed protocol TosMIC acts as sulfonyl source. The catalyst can magnetically be recovered and recycled five times without significant loss in activity.

Oxygenation is a fundamental transformation in synthesis. Herein, we describe the selective late-stage oxygenation of sulfur-containing complex molecules with ground-state oxygen under ambient conditions. The high oxidation potential of the active uranyl cation (UO22+) enabled the efficient synthesis of sulfones. The ligand-to-metal charge transfer process (LMCT) from O 2p to U 5f within the O=U=O group, which generates a UV center and an oxygen radical, is assumed to be affected by the solvent and additives, and can be tuned to promote selective sulfoxidation. This tunable strategy enabled the batch synthesis of 32 pharmaceuticals and analogues by late-stage oxygenation in an atom- and step-efficient manner.
