The first metal-free procedure for the synthesis of arylsulfonyl fluorides is reported. Under organo-photoredox conditions, aryl diazonium salts react with a readily available SO source (DABSO) to afford the desired product through simple nucleophilic fluorination. The reaction tolerates the presence of both electron-rich and -poor aryls and demonstrated a broad functional group tolerance. To shed the light on the reaction mechanism, several experimental techniques were combined, including fluorescence, NMR, and EPR spectroscopy as well as DFT calculations.

An efficient synthesis of sulfonate esters through reductive addition of sodium sulfinates to pillar[4]arene[1]quinone has been established (15 examples). Compared to the arylsulfonylation of -quinone with sodium arylsulfinates under other acidic conditions, this work affords the hydroquinone-type 4--sulfonyl derivatives by using glyoxylic acid monohydrate as a promoter. The protocol features mild reaction conditions and high selectivity and is an alternative protocol for the -sulfonylation of pillar[4]arene[1]hydroquinone.

Engineered Polymeric Carbon Nitride for Photocatalytic Diverse Functionalization of Electronic-Rich Alkenes.

Engineered polymeric carbon nitride represents a promising class of metal-free semiconductor photocatalysts for organic synthesis. Herein, we utilized engineered polymeric carbon nitride nanosheets, which exhibit an increased specific surface area and band gap due to enhanced quantum confinement from vacancy enrichment. These nanosheets serve as a heterogeneous organic semiconductor photocatalyst to facilitate diverse functionalizations of electron-rich alkenes, including arylsulfonylation, aminodifluoroalkylation, and oxytrifluoromethylation.

A rongalite-induced C(sp)-H functionalization reaction has been developed for the synthesis of 3-(phenylsulfonylmethyl) indole derivatives from indole and arylsulfonyl hydrazides. This regioselective C-H functionalization provides a wide range of C-3 sulfonylmethyl indoles with upto 90% yields. Here, rongalite functions as a C1 unit source and a single electron donor.

Herein, we report an expedient synthesis of aryl sulfonyl ureas and from -amino pyridinium ylides and aryl isocyanates. -Aminopyridinium ylides are synthesized via blue light-emitting diode irradiation of pyridine/isoquinoline and appropriate iminoiodinanes. The strategy involved a hitherto unknown carboamination of imine moieties (of aryl isocyanates) via a three-component reaction of pyridine derivatives/isoquinoline , -aryl sulfonyl iminoiodinanes , and numerous aryl isocyanates at room temperature in 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran to afford the target compounds in moderate to excellent yields.

Metal-Free Synthesis of Polysubstituted Triazoloquinoxalines Using Alkynols as the Key Building Blocks.

-Phenylenediamines, -nitroanilines, and Boc--phenylenediamines were converted to -Ts/Ns--phenylenediamines, followed by Mitsunobu alkylation with prop-2-yn-1-ols. After one-pot azidation, the resulting intermediates underwent Huisgen cycloaddition, which yielded Ts/Ns-dihydrotriazoloquinoxalines. Cleavage of the arylsulfonyl moiety provided (dihydro)triazoloquinoxalines with the possibility of modifying the position.
