Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-promoted catalyst-free oxidative C-N coupling and C-O coupling under oxidant-free conditions are outlined. This protocol is operationally simple and leads to various functionalized substituted imidazoles or oxazoles in good yields. To date, a very limited number of oxidation protocols have been established, where DMSO acts solely as a catalyst or an oxidant or both. In this report, DMSO is not only used as a C-N/C-O coupling agent but is also used as the oxidant required for these oxidative transformations. Hence, our demonstrated DMSO-promoted catalyst-free coupling transformation has the ability to lead to a new dimension in the field of oxidative coupling.
概述了在无氧化剂条件下二甲基亚砜(DMSO)促进的无催化剂氧化C-N偶联和C-O偶联。该方法操作简单,能以良好的产率得到各种官能化的取代咪唑或恶唑。迄今为止,已建立的氧化方法数量非常有限,其中DMSO仅作为催化剂或氧化剂或两者兼而有之。在本报告中,DMSO不仅用作C-N/C-O偶联剂,还用作这些氧化转化所需的氧化剂。因此,我们所展示的DMSO促进的无催化剂偶联转化有能力在氧化偶联领域开辟一个新的方向。
