Abstract
A sulfur-mediated umpolung strategy employing N-thiosuccinimides and (EtO)2P(O)SH has been developed to synthesize unsymmetrical organophosphorus disulfides (P(O)-S-S motif). A pronucleophile (EtO)2P(O)SH, Brønsted acid and phosphorothioate nucleophile, converts N-thiosuccinimides into unsymmetrical phosphorus disulfides. This protocol achieves catalyst- and additive-free reaction conditions, uses a renewable solvent (EtOH), and avoids harsh reagents.

Chem Asian J 2024; 19:e202400124. [PMID: 38421239 DOI: 10.1002/asia.202400124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
In light of the important biological activities and widespread applications of organic disulfides, dithiocarbamates, xanthates, thiocarbamates and thiocarbonates, the continual persuit of efficient methods for their synthesis remains crucial. Traditionally, the preparation of such compounds heavily relied on intricate multi-step syntheses and the use of highly prefunctionalized starting materials. Over the past two decades, the direct sulfuration of C-H bonds has evolved into a straightforward, atom- and step-economical method for the preparation of organosulfur compounds. This review aims to provide an up-to-date discussion on direct C-H disulfuration, dithiocarbamation, xanthylation, thiocarbamation and thiocarbonation, with a special focus on describing scopes and mechanistic aspects. Moreover, the synthetic limitations and applications of some of these methodologies, along with the key unsolved challenges to be addressed in the future are also discussed. The majority of examples covered in this review are accomplished via metal-free, photochemical or electrochemical approaches, which are in alignment with the overraching objectives of green and sustainable chemistry. This comprehensive review aims to consolidate recent advancements, providing valuable insights into the dynamic landscape of efficient and sustainable synthetic strategies for these crucial classes of organosulfur compounds.

Abstract
Here, we report controlled and site-selective C-H alkenylation and dialkenylation of indolizines and pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinolines with β-alkoxyvinyl trifluoromethylketones under simple and practical conditions. Moreover, this direct C-H alkenylation strategy can also be extended to imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines. Notably, without a transition metal and external oxidant, efficient dehydrogenative β-alkenylation of tertiary amines with β-alkoxyvinyl trifluoromethylketones is presented.
