Spontaneous Resolution of Julia-Kocienski Intermediates Facilitates Phase Separation to Produce Z- and E-Monofluoroalkenes
摘要:
The monofluoroalkene motif is important in drug development as it serves as a peptide bond isostere and is found in a number of biologically active compounds with various pharmacological activities. Direct olefination of carbonyl compound is a straightforward way to prepare monofluoroalkenes; however, these methods often result in a mixture of Z- and E-isomers that cannot be easily separated. We discovered a unique spontaneous resolving reaction that simultaneously addresses the problems in the synthesis and separation of Z- and E-monofluoroalkenes. The reaction is accompanied by a highly efficient spontaneous kinetic resolution and phase labeling of monofluoroalkene precursors which allows the separation of Z- and E-monofluoroalkenes by liquid-liquid extraction. The application of the method is demonstrated by the synthesis and separation of potential anticancer agents, which are inseparable by HPLC.

The commercially available and cheap sodium dithionite is used as the source of sulfonyl group for the synthesis of sulfones and sulfonamides from (hetero)aryl iodides under catalyst‐free conditions. During the reaction process, sodiumsulfinates generated in situ are the key intermediate, which can be further converted into diverse sulfones and sulfonamides. This transformation proceeds through a
