A base‐promoted three‐component coupling of carbon dioxide, amines, and N‐tosylhydrazones has been developed. The reaction is suggested to proceed via a carbocation intermediate and constitutes an efficient and versatile approach for the synthesis of a wide range of organic carbamates. The advantages of this method include the use of readily available substrates, excellent functional group tolerance
A new strategy for the transformation of terminalalkynes to branched allylic sulfones was developed. Using a Rh(I)/DPEphos/benzoic acid catalyst system, terminalalkynes react with sulfonyl hydrazides to produce branched allylic sulfones with good to excellent yields and selectivities in general.
nucleophile was developed. The reaction utilizes inexpensive and readily available (CH3CN)3W(CO)3 as a precatalyst and proceeds at 60 °C temperature in the presence of 2,2′-bipyridine and its derivatives as ligand. The synthetic utility of allylic sulfones as electrophile was further demonstrated through Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling as showcased by the formal synthesis of (±)-hinokiresinol.
An efficient and practical protocol for the highly selective preparation of substituted allyl sulfones has been developed. Arenesulfonyl cyanides, Baylis–Hillman adducts, and simple allylic alcohols give an unforeseen outcome (see scheme).
Allylic sulfones are important building blocks in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry. Herein, we disclose a chemodivergent protocol for Pd-catalyzed and ligand-controlled coupling of allenes with sulfinicacids, providing straightforward and atom-economical access to branched allylic sulfones and linear allylic sulfones bearing a conjugated (Z,E)-1,3-diene scaffold in good yields with high
