A copper/silver-cocatalyzed protocol for oxidative sulfonylation of hydrazones is demonstrated. A wide range of β-ketosulfones and N-acylsulfonamides are directly synthesized in moderate to good yields. Our work provides a viable method for scalable preparation of β-ketosulfone derivatives that have found wide applications in the pharmaceutical industry.
The dynamic kinetic resolution of β-keto sulfones was achieved via asymmetric transfer hydrogenation using (S,S)-RuCl[N-(tosyl)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine](p-cymene) in the presence of formic acid and triethylamine afforded the desired products in good yield with up to >99 : 1 dr and high ee up to >99%.
Chemoselective mono halogenation of β-keto-sulfones using potassium halide and hydrogen peroxide; synthesis of halomethyl sulfones and dihalomethyl sulfones
The synthesis of alpha-halo beta-keto-sulfones using potassium halide and hydrogen peroxide as a chemoselective mono halogenation reagent and the synthesis of alpha, alpha-symmetrical and asymmetrical dihalo beta-keto-sulfones and alpha-halo, alpha-alkyl and beta-keto-sulfones is described. Base induced cleavage of alpha-halo beta-keto-sulfones, alpha,alpha-dihalo beta-keto-sulfones, and alpha-halo, alpha-alkyl beta-keto-sulfones afforded the corresponding halomethyl sulfones, dihalomethyl sulfones and haloalkyl sulfones.

Efficient Diastereoselective Syntheses of <i>erythro</i>- or <i>threo</i>-α-Alkyl-β-hydroxy Sulfones by Reductions of α-Alkyl-β-keto Sulfones with TiCl<sub>4</sub>/BH<sub>3</sub> or LiEt<sub>3</sub>BH/CeCl<sub>3</sub>, Respectively
A stereoselective synthesis of erythro- and threo-alpha-alkyl-beta-hydroxy sulfones by reduction of the corresponding alpha-alkyl-beta-keto sulfones has I,een developed. The pivotal role in this methodology is played by the chelating or nonchelating properties of the Lewis acid employed. The strong chelating TiCl4 led to the erythro isomer in high diastereomeric excess in noncoordinating solvents (CH2Cl2) at -78 degrees C using BH3/py as reducing agent, while the nonchelating CeCl3 gave a high excess of the three isomer in coordinating solvents (THF) at the same temperature using lithium triethylborohydride (LiEt3BH) as reducing agent. Moreover, this methodology has been successfully utilized for the synthesis of alpha-allyl-beta-hydroxy sulfones, which are useful synthetic intermediates to obtain 2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans by electrophilic cyclization.
