Remote Sulfonylation of Anilines with Sodium Sulfifinates Using Biomass-Derived Copper Catalyst

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: @CS-400, was employed as an excellent recyclable heterogeneous catalyst to realize the sulfonylation reaction of aniline derivatives with sodium sulfinates. Various substrates were compatible, giving the desired products moderate to good yields at room temperature. In addition, this heterogeneous copper catalyst was also easy to recover and was recyclable up to five times without considerably deteriorating in catalytic efficiency. Importantly, these sulfonylation products were readily converted to the corresponding 4-sulfonyl anilines via a hydrolysis step. The method offers a unique strategy for synthesizing arylsulfones and has the potential to create new possibilities for developing heterogeneous copper-catalyzed C-H functionalizations.
