Efficient methods for the stereoselective synthesis of polyfunctional (E)- and (2)-alkenes and conjugated (EE)- and (E,2)-dienones are presented. They rely upon one-pot, four-component processes that condense 1-oxy-1,3-dienes, silyl enol ethers, SO2, and c ...
A new sulfur dioxide-based organic chemistry has been developed as a novel approach for the stereoselective synthesis of polyene fragments based on our one-pot, four-component synthesis of polyfunctional alpha-alkanesulfonyl-gamma,delta-unsaturated ketones ...
The present invention relates to a process for preparing sulfonyl halides comprising the steps of a) reacting an enoxymetal, allylsilane or allylstannane compound, preferably in the presence of a diene, with sulphur dioxide and b) adding a suitable halogen ...
Silyl enol ethers of esters, ketones, as well as allylstannane and allylsilanes react with sulfur dioxide activated with t-BuMe2SiOSO2CF3 to give silyl sulfinates that can be reacted in the same pot with a variety of electrophiles generating the correspond ...
The goal of this thesis was to open a new route to the synthesis of conjugated trienes using a new SO2-based C-C bond forming reactions developed in Lausanne. In addition, the potential of SO2 for applications in synthetic organic chemistry has been exploi ...
At low temperature and in the presence of an acid catalyst, SO2 adds to 1,3-dienes equilibrating with the corresponding 3,6-dihydro-1,2-oxathiin-2-oxides (sultines). These compounds are unstable above -60 degrees C and equilibrate with the more stable 2,5- ...
The ene reaction of sulfur dioxide with enoxysilanes or with allylsilanes generates silyl sulfinates that can be brominated (Br-2 or NBS) or chlorinated (NCS or Cl-2) to produce the corresponding sulfonyl halides. They react with primary and secondary amin ...
