Intermolecular anionradical [2+2] cyclobutanation reactions have been observed between vinyl sulfones and vinyl/propenyl ketones. The products are novel and formed electrocatalytically, although yields are at best modest (11–45%). Competing mechanisms are discussed. Additionally, the electrochemical reduction of vinyl alkyl sulfones in acetonitrile leads to near quantitative formation of cyanomethylation
Sulfones and alkylnitriles play a significant role in both organic and medicinal chemistry, as versatile synthetic building blocks and privileged pharmacophores in many natural products and bioactive compounds. Herein, a room‐temperature, copper‐catalyzed radical cross‐coupling of redox‐active cycloketone oxime esters and sulfinate salts is described for the first time. Key to the success of this process

A transition-metal-free arylation of lithium, magnesium, and zinc sulfinates with diaryliodonium salts is described. The sulfinic acid salts were prepared from the reaction of the corresponding organometallic reagents and sulfur dioxide. Combination of the three single steps (preparation of the organometalliccompound, sulfinate formation, and arylation) leads to a one-pot sequence for the synthesis
