An organo-photocatalytic sulfonylimination of alkenes was developed by employing readily available -sulfonyl ketimines as bifunctional reagents. This transformation, featuring prominent functional group tolerance, provides a direct and atom-economic approach for the synthesis of valuable β-amino sulfone derivatives as a single regioisomer. In addition to terminal alkenes, internal alkenes participate in this reaction with high diastereoselectivity. -Sulfonyl ketimines with aryl or alkyl substituents were found to be compatible with this reaction condition. This method could be applied in the late-stage modifications of drugs. Additionally, a formal insertion of alkene into cyclic sulfonyl imine was observed, affording a ring expansion product.
一种通过利用易得的 -磺酰基酮亚胺作为双功能试剂的烯烃的有机-光催化磺酰亚胺化反应被开发出来。这种转化具有显著的官能团耐受性,为合成有价值的β-氨基砜衍生物提供了一种直接的、原子经济性的方法,并且产物作为单一区域异构体。除了末端烯烃外,内部烯烃也具有高立体选择性地参与该反应。带有芳基或烷基取代基的 -磺酰基酮亚胺与该反应条件兼容。该方法可应用于药物的后期修饰。此外,还观察到烯烃的环状磺酰亚胺的形式插入,得到环扩张产物。
