A benzothiophene S‐oxide catalyst, generated in situ by sulfur oxidation with H2O2, mediates the oxidative coupling of 2‐naphthols. Key to the catalytic process is the capture and inversion of reactivity of a 2‐naphthol partner, using an interrupted Pummerer reaction of an unusual benzothiophene S‐oxide, followed by subsequent coupling with a second partner. The new catalytic manifold has been showcased
通过H 2 O 2硫氧化原位生成的苯并噻吩S-氧化物催化剂介导2-萘酚的氧化偶联。催化过程的关键是使用不寻常的苯并噻吩S-氧化物中断的Pummerer反应,然后与第二个配偶偶合,捕获和转化2-萘酚配偶的反应性。新的催化歧管已在生物活性天然产物(±)-尼莫酮和(±)-异麦酮的合成中得到展示。尽管Pummerer反应被广泛使用,但它们在催化中的应用却很少,我们的方法代表了一种新的无金属C-C键形成的催化流形。
