Abstract
We present here a novel paired electrocatalysis-enabled convenient synthesis of the (E)-vinyl sulfoximines through the cross-coupling reaction of sulfinamides and olefins. This protocol showed a broad substrate scope and excellent E selectivity of products under metal- and oxidant-free conditions. A preliminary mechanistic study suggested that fluorinated sulfoximine generated from anodic oxidation of sulfinamide was the key intermediate that was then converted into the sulfonimidoyl radical at the cathode with the help of DBU in this reaction.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
