Abstract
A modular synthesis of sulfondiimidoyl fluorides-the double aza-analogues of sulfonyl fluorides-allowing variation of the carbon and both nitrogen-substituents is reported. The chemistry uses readily available organometallic reagents, commercial sulfinylamines, simple electrophiles, and N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI), as the starting materials. The reactions are broad in scope, efficient, and scalable. We show that the sulfondiimidoyl fluoride products can be combined with amines to provide sulfondiimidamides, and with organolithium reagents to provide sulfondiimines, and that reactivity in these transformations can be modulated by variation of the N-substituents.

Abstract
SuFEx click chemistry demonstrates remarkable molecular assembly capabilities. However, the effective utilization of alkyl sulfonyl fluoride hubs in SuFEx chemistry, particularly in reactions with alcohols and primary amines, presents considerable challenges. This study pioneers an intramolecular chalcogen bonding activated SuFEx (S-SuFEx) click chemistry employing alkyl sulfonyl fluorides with γ-S as the activating group. The ChB-activated alkyl sulfonyl fluorides can react smoothly with phenols, alcohols, and amines, exhibiting enhanced reactivity compared to SO2F2. Excellent yields have been achieved with all 75 tested substrates. Pioneering the application of S-SuFEx chemistry, we highlight its immense potential in organic-inorganic linking, considering the critical role of interfacial covalent bonding in material fabrication. The S-SuFEx hub 1c, incorporating a trialkoxy silane group has been specifically designed and synthesized for organic-inorganic linking. In a simple step, 1c efficiently anchors various organic compounds onto surfaces of inorganic materials, forming functionalized surfaces with properties such as antibacterial activity, hydrophobicity, and fluorescence.

Abstract
We report a novel and efficient method for the preparation of diarylmethyl sulfonamide derivatives through visible-light-induced sulfamoylation of para-quinone methides with sulfamoyl chlorides under mild, metal-free conditions. This protocol demonstrates excellent tolerance toward a wide range of functional groups, affording the corresponding products in moderate to high yields. Preliminary mechanism studies revealed that the excited photocatalyst rhodamine 6G* was mainly quenched by para-quinone methides and the generated diarylmethyl radical intermediates then underwent radical-radical cross-coupling with sulfamoyl radicals to yield the diarylmethyl sulfonamides.

Abstract
The synthesis of sequence-regulated oligosulfates has not yet been established due to the difficulties in precise reactivity control. In this work, we report an example of a multi-directional divergent iterative method to furnish oligosulfates based on a chain homologation approach, in which the fluorosulfate unit is regenerated. The oligosulfate sequences are determined by high resolution mass spectrometry of the hydrolyzed fragments, and polysulfate periodic copolymers are synthesized by using oligomeric bisfluorosulfates in a bi-directional fashion. The synthetic utility of this iterative ligation is demonstrated by preparing crosslinked network polymers as synthetic adhesive materials.

Abstract
Accelerated SuFEx Click Chemistry (ASCC) is a powerful method for coupling aryl and alkyl alcohols with SuFEx-compatible functional groups. With its hallmark favorable kinetics and exceptional product yields, ASCC streamlines the synthetic workflow, simplifies the purification process, and is ideally suited for discovering functional molecules. We showcase the versatility and practicality of the ASCC reaction as a tool for the late-stage derivatization of bioactive molecules and in the array synthesis of sulfonate-linked, high-potency, microtubule targeting agents (MTAs) that exhibit nanomolar anticancer activity against multidrug-resistant cancer cell lines. These findings underscore ASCC's promise as a robust platform for drug discovery.

Abstract
Chemoselective transformations of functionalized sulfonyl fluorides and chlorides are surveyed comprehensively. It is shown that sulfonyl fluorides provide an excellent selectivity control in their reactions. Thus, numerous conditions are tolerated by the SO2 F group - from amide and ester formation to directed ortho-lithiation and transition-metal-catalyzed cross-couplings. Meanwhile, sulfur (VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) is also compatible with numerous functional groups, thus confirming its title of "another click reaction". On the contrary, with a few exceptions, most transformations of functionalized sulfonyl chlorides typically occur at the SO2 Cl moiety.

Abstract
The formation of a five- or six-membered ring is known to stabilize unstable molecular structures such as hemiacetals. This idea can also be extended to stabilize other high-coordinated p-block element species. Herein, we synthesized two novel polycyclic organophosphorus heterocycles via Staudinger-type annulations. Reactions of either ortho-phosphinoarenesulfonyl fluorides 1 or ortho-phosphinobenzoic acid methyl esters 4 with ortho-azidophenols 2 gave rise to penta-coordinated P(V) heterocycles, benzo-benzo-1,2,3-thiazaphospholo-1,3,2-oxazaphosphole (B-B-TAP-OAP) 3 and benzo-benzo-1,2-azaphospholo-1,3,2-oxazaphosphol-12-one (B-B-AP-OAP) 5 in satisfactory yields. It is remarkable that heterocycles 3 and 5 are both bench-stable and exhibit considerable stability in a 10 % aqueous tetrahydrofuran solution. Preliminary computational studies disclosed that the formation of nitrogen gas is the key driving force for the annulations. In addition, the formation of a strong Si-F bond is another contributor to the annulation of 1 and 2.

Abstract
Molecular glue degraders (MGDs) are small molecules that degrade proteins of interest via the ubiquitin-proteasome system. While MGDs were historically discovered serendipitously, approaches for MGD discovery now include cell-viability-based drug screens or data mining of public transcriptomics and drug response datasets. These approaches, however, have target spaces restricted to the essential proteins. Here we develop a high-throughput workflow for MGD discovery that also reaches the nonessential proteome. This workflow begins with the rapid synthesis of a compound library by sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange chemistry coupled to a morphological profiling assay in isogenic cell lines that vary in levels of the E3 ligase CRBN. By comparing the morphological changes induced by compound treatment across the isogenic cell lines, we were able to identify FL2-14 as a CRBN-dependent MGD targeting the nonessential protein GSPT2. We envision that this workflow would contribute to the discovery and characterization of MGDs that target a wider range of proteins.

Abstract
Sulfation widely exists in the eukaryotic proteome. However, understanding the biological functions of sulfation in peptides and proteins has been hampered by the lack of methods to control its spatial or temporal distribution in the proteome. Herein, we report that fluorosulfate can serve as a latent precursor of sulfate in peptides and proteins, which can be efficiently converted to sulfate by hydroxamic acid reagents under physiologically relevant conditions. Photocaging the hydroxamic acid reagents further allowed for the light-controlled activation of functional sulfopeptides. This work provides a valuable tool for probing the functional roles of sulfation in peptides and proteins.

Abstract
Herein we report the facile syntheses of tetrazoles enabled by FSO2N3 under mild conditions. FSO2N3 has been shown as the most powerful diazotizing reagent, which converts thousands of primary amines to azides fast and orthogonally. As the follow-up studies of the diazo transfer reaction using FSO2N3, we discover that amidines and guanidines are rapidly transformed into tetrazole derivatives when reacting with FSO2N3 under an aqueous environment, which is unprecedented for tetrazole synthesis.

Abstract
Sulfonyl and sulfonimidoyl fluorides are versatile substrates in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. However, they have been exclusively used as S(VI)+ electrophiles for defluorinative ligations. Converting sulfonyl and sulfonimidoyl fluorides to S(VI) radicals is challenging and underexplored due to the strong bond dissociation energy of SVI-F and high reduction potentials, but once achieved would enable dramatically expanded synthetic utility and downstream applications. In this report, we disclose a general platform to address this issue through cooperative organosuperbase activation and photoredox catalysis. Vinyl sulfones and sulfoximines are obtained with excellent E selectivity under mild conditions by coupling reactions with alkenes. The synthetic utility of this method in the preparation of functional polymers and dyes is also demonstrated.

Abstract
Phosphorus Fluoride Exchange (PFEx) represents a cutting-edge advancement in catalytic click-reaction technology. Drawing inspiration from Nature's phosphate connectors, PFEx facilitates the reliable coupling of P(V)-F loaded hubs with aryl alcohols, alkyl alcohols, and amines to produce stable, multidimensional P(V)-O and P(V)-N linked products. The rate of P-F exchange is significantly enhanced by Lewis amine base catalysis, such as 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD). PFEx substrates containing multiple P-F bonds are capable of selective, serial exchange reactions via judicious catalyst selection. In fewer than four synthetic steps, controlled projections can be deliberately incorporated along three of the four tetrahedral axes departing from the P(V) central hub, thus taking full advantage of the potential for generating three-dimensional diversity. Furthermore, late-stage functionalization of drugs and drug fragments can be achieved with the polyvalent PFEx hub, hexafluorocyclotriphosphazene (HFP), as has been demonstrated in prior research.

Abstract
A SuFEx linkage reaction between sulfonimidoyl fluoride and allyltrimethylsilane was achieved for the construction of N-modified allylsulfoximines in minutes with BF3 as a nonmetal difunctional activator enabling the activation of both S-F and C-Si bonds to forge the S-Callyl (sp3) bond swiftly. Mechanistic studies and DFT calculations indicated that the linkage was initiated with the activation of sulfonimidoyl fluoride and then followed with the transfer of the fluoride anion to the TMS group.

Abstract
Sulfur fluoride exchange (SuFEx), a new generation of click chemistry, was first presented by Sharpless, Dong and co-workers in 2014. Owing to the high stability and yet efficient reactivity of the SVI-F bond, SuFEx has found widespread applications in organic synthesis, materials science, chemical biology and drug discovery. A diverse collection of SuFEx linkers has emerged, involving gaseous SO2F2 and SOF4 hubs; SOF4-derived iminosulfur oxydifluorides; O-, N- and C-attached sulfonyl fluorides and sulfonimidoyl fluorides; and novel sulfondiimidoyl fluorides. This review summarizes the progress of these SuFEx connectors, with an emphasis on analysing the advantages and disadvantages of synthetic strategies of these connectors based on the SuFEx concept, and it is expected to be beneficial to researchers to rapidly and correctly understand this field, thus inspiring further development in SuFEx chemistry.

Abstract
SuFEx click chemistry has been a method for the rapid synthesis of functional molecules with desirable properties. Here, we demonstrated a workflow that allows for in situ synthesis of sulfonamide inhibitors based on SuFEx reaction for high-throughput testing of their cholinesterase activity. According to fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD), sulfonyl fluorides [R-SO2F] with moderate activity were identified as fragment hits, rapidly diversified into 102 analogs in SuFEx reactions, and the sulfonamides were directly screened to yield drug-like inhibitors with 70-fold higher potency (IC50 = 94 nM). Moreover, the improved molecule J8-A34 can ameliorate cognitive function in Aβ1-42-induced mouse model. Since this SuFEx linkage reaction succeeds on picomole scale for direct screening, this methodology can accelerate the development of robust biological probes and drug candidates.

Abstract
Sulfur dioxide-containing compounds such as sulfonyl fluorides, sulfonyl esters, and sulfonyl amides are important structural frameworks in many natural products, pharmaceuticals, and organic compounds. Thus, synthesis of these molecules is a very valuable research topic in organic chemistry. Various synthetic methods to introduce SO2 groups into the structure of organic compounds have been developed for the synthesis of biologically and pharmaceutically useful compounds. Recently, visible-light-driven reactions were carried out to create SO2-X (X = F, O, N) bonds, and their effective synthetic approaches were demonstrated. In this review, we summarized recent advances in visible-light-mediated synthetic strategies for generation of SO2-X (X = F, O, N) bonds for various synthetic applications along with proposed reaction mechanisms.

Abstract
Sulfonamides have many important biological applications, yet their synthesis often involves long reaction times under dry and non-ambient conditions. Here we report the synthesis of a large range of sulfonamides at room temperature using 4-nitrophenyl benzylsulfonate as a starting material. Sulfonamides were prepared from a wide range of aliphatic, linear, and cyclic amines, anilines, and N-methylanilines. The yields and reaction times observed here were comparable to or better than those reported previously, establishing sulfur-phenolate exchange as a viable alternative.

Abstract
Polycyclic hydrocarbons (PH) provide intriguing potential as lipophilic scaffolds within medicinal chemistry, but are currently limited by the availability of synthetic tools for predictable modification of the PH unit. Herein we report the development of new methods for installation of a sulfonamide unit to PH cores. In the first method, a xanthate ester serves as reagent for aminosulfonation using pre-formed imidoiodinane as N-source. An investigation of the reaction mechanism was performed to implicate a process involving a N-centered radical. An additional method for sulfonamide installation is described that involves the use of commercially available reagents and operationally convenient conditions. Using the new synthetic methods, 22 compounds were prepared and screened for biological activity against 6 mammalian cell lines along with Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Results of the viability assays have identified compounds that exhibit higher potency than other known anticancer agents such as indisulam and ABT-751. Additionally, the physicochemical and drug-likeness properties of the synthesized compounds have been determined experimentally and using in silico predictive tools. The initial exploration into sulfonamide insertion into PH cores has resulted in a number of compounds that warrant further development to produce molecules with therapeutic value.

Abstract
![]()
We report a mechanistic
investigation of calcium bistriflimide-mediated
sulfur(VI)–fluoride exchange (SuFEx) between sulfonyl fluorides
and amines. We determine the likely pre-activation resting state—a
calcium bistriflimide complex with ligated amines—thus allowing
for corroborated calculation of the SuFEx activation barrier at ∼21
kcal/mol, compared to 21.5 ± 0.14 kcal/mol derived via kinetics
experiments. Transition state analysis revealed: (1) a two-point calcium-substrate
contact that activates the sulfur(VI) center and stabilizes the leaving
fluoride and (2) a 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane additive that provides
Brønsted-base activation of the nucleophilic amine. Stable Ca–F
complexes upon sulfonamide formation are likely contributors to inhibited
catalytic turnover, and a proof-of-principle redesign provided evidence
that sulfonamide formation is feasible with 10 mol % calcium bistriflimide. We report a computational and experimental
mechanistic study
of sulfur(VI)-fluoride exchange mediated by a calcium salt. Ca2+ activates the substrate via two critical Lewis acid−base
interactions. Stable fluoride-ligated Ca2+ complexes are
formed upon sulfonamide formation, and computations indicate that
heat and/or fluoride scavengers will facilitate regeneration of the
active Ca2+ species. These calculations guided an experimental
redesign, thus demonstrating improved catalytic efficiency using 10
mol % Ca2+.

Abstract
Sulfonyl fluorides have attracted considerable and growing research interests from various disciplines, which raises a high demand for novel and effective methods to access this class of compounds. Radical flurosulfonylation is recently emerging as a promising approach for the synthesis of sulfonyl fluorides. However, the scope of applicable substrate and reaction types are severely restricted by limited known radical reagents. Here, we introduce a solid state, redox-active type of fluorosulfonyl radical reagents, 1-fluorosulfonyl 2-aryl benzoimidazolium triflate (FABI) salts, which enable the radical fluorosulfonylation of olefins under photoredox conditions. In comparison with the known radical precursor, gaseous FSO2Cl, FABI salts are bench-stable, easy to handle, affording high yields in the radical fluorosulfonylation of olefins with before challenging substrates. The advantage of FABIs is further demonstrated in the development of an alkoxyl-fluorosulfonyl difunctionalization reaction of olefins, which forges a facile access to useful β-alkoxyl sulfonyl fluorides and related compounds, and would thus benefit the related study in the context of chemical biology and drug discovery in the future.

Abstract
Electrochemical synthesis of versatile β-keto sulfonyl fluorides is accomplished by radical fluorosulfonylation of vinyl triflates with FSO2Cl as the fluorosulfonyl radical source. This electroreductive protocol uses inexpensive graphite felt as electrodes, thus avoiding the use of a sacrificial anode. Moreover, this protocol, featuring metal-free, mild conditions and easy scalability, allows expedient access to valuable β-keto sulfonyl fluorides from readily available precursors, as well as the cyclic ones that are otherwise inaccessible using prior methods.

Abstract
SuFEx click chemistry is a powerful method designed for the selective, rapid, and modular synthesis of functional molecules. Classical SuFEx reactions form stable S-O linkages upon exchange of S-F bonds with aryl silyl-ether substrates, and while near-perfect in their outcome, are sometimes disadvantaged by relatively high catalyst loadings and prolonged reaction times. We herein report the development of accelerated SuFEx click chemistry (ASCC), an improved SuFEx method for the efficient and catalytic coupling of aryl and alkyl alcohols with a range of SuFExable hubs. We demonstrate Barton's hindered guanidine base (2-tert-butyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine; BTMG) as a superb SuFEx catalyst that, when used in synergy with silicon additive hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS), yields stable S-O bond linkages in a single step; often within minutes. The powerful combination of BTMG and HMDS reagents allows for catalyst loadings as low as 1.0 mol % and, in congruence with click-principles, provides a scalable method that is safe, efficient, and practical for modular synthesis. ASSC expands the number of accessible SuFEx products and will find significant application in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, and materials science.

Abstract
The advent of sulfur(VI)-fluoride exchange (SuFEx) processes as transformations with click-like reactivity has invigorated research into electrophilic species featuring a sulfur-fluorine bond. Among these, sulfonyl fluorides have emerged as the workhorse functional group, with diverse applications being reported. Sulfonyl fluorides are used as electrophilic warheads by both medicinal chemists and chemical biologists. The balance of reactivity and stability that is so attractive for these applications, particularly the resistance of sulfonyl fluorides to hydrolysis under physiological conditions, has provided opportunities for synthetic chemists. New synthetic approaches that start with sulfur-containing substrates include the activation of sulfonamides using pyrilium salts, the deoxygenation of sulfonic acids, and the electrochemical oxidation of thiols. Employing non-sulfur-containing substrates has led to the development of transition-metal-catalysed processes based on palladium, copper and nickel, as well as the use of SO2F2 gas as an electrophilic hub. Selectively manipulating molecules that already contain a sulfonyl fluoride group has also proved to be a popular tactic, with metal-catalysed processes again at the fore. Finally, coaxing sulfonyl fluorides to engage with nucleophiles, when required, and under suitable reaction conditions, has led to new activation methods. This Review provides an overview of the challenges in the efficient synthesis and manipulation of these intriguing functional groups.
