Abstract

An efficient method has been described for the synthesis of vinyl sulfones via hydrosulfonylation of alkynes using sodium arene sulfinates catalyzed by Cu(OTf)2 under microwave irradiation. A variety of vinyl sulfones was obtained in good to excellent (71–89%) yields and with high regio- and stereoselectivity. Shortened reaction times, simple reaction conditions and low catalyst loading are the salient features of this protocol.

Key words

microwave - vinyl sulfones - copper triflate - alkynes - sodium arene sulfinates

  • 22 Representative Procedure: Phenylacetylene (102 mg, 1 mmol), sodium benzene sulfinate (164 mg, 1 mmol), and Cu(OTf)2 (16 mg, 2.5 mol%) were added to a 10-mL microwave tube containing AcOH (2 mL) and a magnetic stirrer bar. The reaction mixture was placed in a CEM Discover BenchMate. The reaction parameters were set to 200 W, 250 psi, 110 °C for 5 min with stirring. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was diluted with H2O (10 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (2 × 10 mL). The organic layer was dried with anhyd Na2SO4, filtered and the solvent evaporated on a rotary evaporator to give the crude product which was purified by passing through a silica column to give pure 3a (200 mg, 82%) as a white solid.
