With water as the reaction medium, a green and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of (E)-vinylsulfones via I2-mediated decarboxylative cross-coupling reactions of sodium sulfinates with cinnamic acids. This synthetic route could effectively avoid the use of toxic organic solvents and transition metal catalysts, and the target products could be obtained with moderate to excellent
Vinylsulfones have been efficiently synthesized by treatment of alkenes with sodium arene sulfinates using potassium iodide and sodium periodate in the presence of a catalytic amount of acetic acid at room temperature. The products are formed in high yields (87-95%) within 2.5-8 hours. vinylsulfone - alkene - arylsulfinate - synthetic methods Part 229 in the series ‘Studies on Novel Synthetic Methodologies’
