A phosphine-free cationic rhodium(I) complex, [Rh(cod)2]BF4, is an effective catalyst for disulfide exchange reaction of symmetrical disulfides to unsymmetricaldisulfides under inert atmosphere. This reaction could be carried out using unpurified commercial grade solvents under air without decrease of yields and reaction rates.
An (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>S<sub>2</sub>O<sub>8</sub>-promoted cross-coupling of thiols/diselenides and sulfoxides for the synthesis of unsymmetrical disulfides/selenosulfides
An (NH4)2S2O8-promoted cross-coupling of thiols/diselenides and sulfoxides to construct unsymmetrical disulfides/selenosulfides is disclosed. Control experiments demonstrate that (NH4)2S2O8 acts as an acid and an oxidant, while both ionic and radical routes are involved in the reaction. The KIE experiments reveal that C–H bond cleavage of sulfoxides was involved in the turnover-limiting step.
公开了一种(NH 4 ) 2 S 2 O 8促进的硫醇/二硒化物和亚砜的交叉偶联以构建不对称的二硫化物/硒硫化物。对照实验表明,(NH 4 ) 2 S 2 O 8充当酸和氧化剂,而离子和自由基途径都参与反应。KIE 实验表明,亚砜的 C-H 键断裂参与了周转限制步骤。
