A novel sulfoxide-mediated alpha-arylation of carbonyl compounds is reported. This reaction proceeds under very mild conditions at room temperature and does not require any transition-metal promoter or catalyst.
Sulfur(IV)-Mediated Transformations: From Ylide Transfer to Metal-Free Arylation of Carbonyl Compounds
The development of a direct ylide transfer to carbonyl derivatives and of a sulfoxide-mediated arylation is presented from a unified perspective. Mechanistic studies (including density functional calculations) support a common reaction pathway and showcase how subtle changes in reactant properties can lead to disparate and seemingly unrelated reaction outcomes.
