Abstract:Synthetically versatile alkyl sulfinates
can be prepared from readily
available amines, using Katritzky pyridinium salt intermediates. In
a catalyst-free procedure, primary, secondary, and benzylic alkyl
radicals are generated by photoinduced or thermally induced single-electron
transfer (SET) from an electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complex,
and trapped by SO2 to generate sulfonyl radicals. Hydrogen
atom transfer (HAT) from Hantzsch ester gives alkyl sulfinate products,
which are used to prepare a selection of m… Show more
“…Willis and co-workers developed a method for the synthesis of alkyl sulfinates and their derivatives from Katritzky pyridinium salts (Scheme 31). 93 This method forms alkyl radicals by photo-or thermally induced SET from an EDA (electron donor-acceptor) complex formed between a Katritzky salt, a Hantzsch ester and an amine additive. This method was shown to have good functional group tolerance, and conditions were developed for use with secondary, -primary and benzylic starting materials.…”
The introduction of easy-to-handle SO2 surrogates has transformed the field of sulfur chemistry, enabling methodologies utilizing SO2 to be carried out without specialized apparatus, and paving the way for the development of new procedures.

“…1Bc). 14 Despite these invaluable advances, the development of general and efficient methods for aliphatic sulfonyl fluoride synthesis is still in high demand.…”
Based on radical sulfur dioxide insertion and fluorination strategy, we have developed an efficient method for aliphatic sulfonyl fluoride synthesis from abundant carboxylic acid, reductant, sulfur dioxide surrogate and electrophilic...
“…17 For example, the Willis group reported a radical approach toward primary and secondary alkylsulfonyl derivatives via donor–acceptor activation of pyridinium salts which were trapped by DABSO to generate sulfonyl radicals (Scheme 1, II, A). 18 Hence, the SO 2 radical insertion/fluorination strategy became a popular method for the construction of the fluorosulfonyl group, with special synthetic advantages in the direct synthesis of sulfonyl fluorides via C–SO 2 F bond formation. 8 Very recently, the Weng group reported a photocatalytic decarboxylative fluorosulfonylation approach for converting aldoxime esters to the corresponding sulfonyl fluorides, 17 f which was enabled by energy-transfer-mediated photocatalysis and N–O bond homolysis.…”
Sulfonyl fluorides have been increasingly favored by medicinal chemists and chemical biologists because of their unique reactivity and stability, but their synthetic methods still have certain limitations. Based on the...
