Abstract
Copper-catalyzed hydrosulfonylations of alkynes can be carried out using sodium sulfinates in air. The procedure affords syn-selectively (E)-alkenyl sulfones in good yields. Then, both terminal and internal alkynes are available.

- 8 Typical Procedure for Hydrosulfonylation of Alkynes: To a mixture of CuCl (1.5 mg, 0.015 mmol), 2,2′-bis(2-oxazoline) (2.1 mg, 0.015 mmol), and PhSO2Na (2a; 54.2 mg, 0.33 mmol), in DMSO (0.1 mL), H2O (0.1 mL) and AcOH (0.1 mL) was added phenylacetylene (1a; 30.6 mg, 0.3 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at 60 ° C for 18 h in air. After the residue was dissolved in Et2O, the solution was washed with H2O and sat. NaCl and dried over anhyd MgSO4. Chromatography on silica gel (40% Et2O–hexane) gave phenyl (E)-2-phenylethenyl sulfone (3aa; 61.8 mg, 85%). 1H NMR (270 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 7.96 (d, J = 8.2 Hz, 2 H), 7.68 (d, J = 15.5 Hz, 1 H), 7.30–7.58 (m, 8 H), 6.87 (d, J = 15.5 Hz, 1 H). 13C NMR (67.5 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 142.4, 140.6, 133.3, 132.2, 131.1, 129.3, 128.9, 128.5, 127.6, 127.2.

After the residue was dissolved in Et2O, the solution was washed with H2O and sat. NaCl and dried over anhyd MgSO4.
