Sulfonamides are prevalent functional groups represented in both natural and pharmaceutical products. The synthesis of sulfonamides is often straightforward when using nucleophilic amines and electrophilic sulfonyl chlorides. When reactivity challenges arise for nontraditional substrates, harsh conditions or new synthetic routes may be required. Here we report a method using silyl triflate additives to overcome reactivity limitations when electron deficient and sterically encumbered amines are used in conjunction with electron rich or bulky sulfonyl chlorides.

Background: Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) was modified by a sulfuric and nitric acid mixed system to improve the solubility of the material and the gas selective permeability of the film. SN1 and SN5, synthesized from mixed acid systems (with ratios of nitric acid and sulfuric acid of 1:1 and 1:5, respectively) were chosen because they had comparable nitro groups but differing sulfonyl groups. To investigate the impact of the type and content of sulfonated and nitrated polyether ether ketone (SNPEEK) on the structure and physicochemical properties of the films, SN1/polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and SN5/polyvinyl chloride films were made by adding varying amounts of SN1 and SN5 (0.

A series of α-hydroxy-alkylphosphonates and α-hydroxy-alkylphosphine oxides were synthesized by the Pudovik reaction of acetaldehyde and acetone with dialkyl phosphites or diarylphosphine oxides. The additions were performed in three different ways: in liquid phase using triethylamine as the catalyst (1), on the surface of AlO/KF solid catalyst (2), or by a MW-assisted NaCO-catalyzed procedure (3). In most of the cases, our methods were more efficient and more robust than those applied in the literature.

Solvatochromism exhibited by azobenzene-4-sulfonyl chloride (here abbreviated as Azo-SCl) has been investigated in a series of non-polar, polar-aprotic and polar-protic solvents. The UV-vis spectra of Azo-SCl exhibit two long-wavelength bands, observed at 321-330 nm (band-I) and 435-461 nm (band-II), which are ascribed to the π*-π (S ← S) and π*-n (S ← S) transitions, respectively. The shorter wavelength band indicates a reversal in solvatochromism, from negative to positive solvatochromism, for a solvent with a dielectric constant of 32.

Recent advancements in C-S bond formation electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex photoactivation have been remarkable. EDA complexes, which are composed of electron donors and acceptors, facilitate C-S bond construction under mild conditions through single-electron transfer events upon visible light irradiation. This review highlights the utilization of various sulfur-containing substrates, including diacetoxybenzenesulfonyl (DABSO), sulfonic acids, sodium sulfinates, sulfonyl chlorides, and thiophenols, in EDA-promoted sulfonylation and thiolation reactions, covering the works published since 2017 to date.
