Abstract

En 中文
Sulfones are widely used sulfur-VI motifs in pharmaceuticals. We report a hydrosulfonylation strategy that employs N-hydroxymethylphthalimide sulfones as versatile sulfinyl radical precursors. In the presence of tertiary amines, NHMP sulfones form electron donor–acceptor complexes that undergo light-induced single-electron transfer to generate sulfinyl radicals in the absence of a photocatalyst. The resulting radicals add efficiently to activated olefins, affording structurally diverse sulfones under mild conditions.
