Abstract
A catalyst-free photosensitized strategy has been developed for regioselective imino functionalizations of alkenes via the formation of an EDA complex. This photo-induced protocol facilitates the construction of structurally diverse β-imino sulfones and vinyl sulfones in moderate to high yields. Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction is initiated with an intermolecular charge transfer between oximes and sulfinates, followed by fragmentation to generate a persistent iminyl radical and transient sulfonyl radical. This catalyst-free protocol also features excellent regioselectivity, broad functional group tolerance and mild reaction conditions. The late stage functionalization of natural product derived compounds and total synthesis of some bioactive molecules have been demonstrated to highlight the utility of this protocol. Meanwhile, the compatibility of different donors has proved the generality of this strategy.

Abstract
β-Amino sulfones are commonly found structural motifs in biologically active compounds. Herein, we report a direct photocatalyzed amino-sulfonylation reaction of alkenes for the efficicient production of important compounds by simple hydrolysis without the need for additional oxidants and reductants. In this transformation, the sulfonamides worked as bifunctional reagents, simultaneously generating sulfonyl radicals and N-centered radicals which were added to alkene in a highly atom-economical fashion with high regioselectivity and diastereoselectivity. This approach showed high functional group tolerance and compatibility, facilitating the late-stage modification of some bioactive alkenes and sulfonamide molecules, thereby expanding the biologically relevant chemical space. Scaling up this reaction led to an efficient green synthesis of apremilast, one of the best-selling pharmceuticals, demonstrating the synthetic utility of the applied method. Moreover, mechanistic investigations suggest that an energy transfer (EnT) process was in operation.

Abstract
A new class of iminosulfonylation reagents were developed and extensively used in the 1,2-iminosulfonylation of various olefins. Olefins containing bioactive molecules, such as indomethacin, gemfibrozil, clofibrate, and fenbufen, afforded the desired iminosulfonylation products in synthetically useful yields. Furthermore, the first remote 1,6-iminosulfonylation of alkenes was realized by using oxime ester bifunctionalization reagents. Overall, more than 40 structurally diverse β-imine sulfones were obtained in moderate to excellent yields.

Abstract
Diastereoselective fluorination of N-Boc ( R)- and ( S)-2,2-dimethyl-4-((arylsulfonyl)methyl)oxazolidines and a previously unknown diastereoselective epimerization at the fluorine-bearing carbon atom α to the sulfone was realized. Diastereoselectivities of both reactions were excellent for benzothiazolyl sulfones, allowing access to two enantiomerically pure diastereomers from one chiral precursor. To demonstrate synthetic utility, the benzothiazolyl sulfones were converted to diastereomerically pure ( S, S)- and ( R, S)-benzyl sulfones via sulfinate salts and to amino acids. To understand the diastereoselectivities, DFT analysis was performed.

Abstract
Phosphinic acid-based inhibitors of MMP-13 have been investigated with the aim of identifying potent inhibitors with high selectivity versus MMP-1. Independent variation of the substituents on a P(1)' phenethyl group and a P(2) benzyl group improved potencies in both cases around 3-fold over the unsubstituted parent. Combining improved P(1)' and P(2) groups into a single molecule gave an inhibitor with a 4.5 nM IC(50) against MMP-13 and which is 270-fold selective over MMP-1.
