Sulfoxidation of alkenes and alkynes with NFSI as a radical initiator and selective oxidant. Chemical Communications, 53(1), 184-187. | Series/Report no.: | Chemical Communications | Abstract: | Sulfoxides are important functional molecules. We develop a short-route (one-pot) synthesis of this class of molecules by reacting thiols with alkenes or alkynes under mild and metal-free conditions. N-Fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) is used to play dual roles: as a radical initiator for a thiol–ene/–yne reaction to form sulfide adducts, and as efficient oxidant for conversion of the sulfides formed in situ to sulfoxides. Over-oxidation of the sulfoxides to sulfones is avoided in our approach. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/82060 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/43495 |
