9-Fluorenyl 9-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-9-fluorenyl disulfide: the unexpected product of the reaction of 9-bromofluorene and potassium p-toluenethiosulfonate and the mechanism of its formation
摘要:
Reaction of potassium p-toluenethiosulfonate with 9-bromofluorene leads, not to the expected 9-fluorenyl p-toluenethiosulfonate (3), but rather to a product shown to be 9-fluorenyl 9-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-9-fluorenyl disulfide (7, R = 9-fluorenyl) (eq 11). This disulfide of unusual structure is shown to arise as a result of the following reaction sequence: (a) initial formation of 3; (b) a facile elimination of 3 (due to the acidity of the 9-H), forming p-toluenesulfinic acid and 9-thiofluorenone (4); (c) addition of p-CH3C6HSO2- to 4 to give alpha-sulfonyl thiolate ion 16; and (d) reaction of 16 with remaining 3 (in a rapid displacement at the dicoordinate sulfur) to give 7 plus regeneration of p-CH3C6H4SO2-.

corresponding 9H‐fluorenyl radicals. These transient species were directly observed by laser flash photolysis and their UV/visible spectra compared with those of their corresponding cations. Theoretical calculations (density functional theory [DFT]) of these intermediates indicate their destabilizing nature in similar fashion to the antiaromatic character of the corresponding cations.
