Abstract
In this study, we developed a light-induced difunctionalization of [1.1.1]propellane with heteroaryl sulfones acting as difunctional reagents, allowing the introduction of alkyl and heteroaryl units across bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane frameworks. It features a broad substrate scope and can be used to functionalize structurally complex natural products. Mechanistic investigations indicate the Cs2CO3 promoted homolytic cleavage of heteroaryl sulfone C-S bonds by light. Moreover, the benzothiazolyl moiety in the products can serve as a formyl precursor, indicating the robust transformability of the products, owing to the ability of aldehydes to undergo a wide variety of organic transformations.

Abstract
A radical fluorosulfonyl arylation of alkynes with sulfuryl chlorofluoride as the FSO2 radical precursor via electron donor-acceptor photoactivation driven by daylight or a blue light-emitting diode is disclosed. A series of valuable benzo-fused carbocycles and heterocycles have been produced with simple operation under mild conditions in the absence of any external catalysts or additives. The synthetic potential of this protocol has further demonstrated excellent scalability, as well as diverse postderivatizations, including SuFEx reactions and other useful cascade reactions.

Abstract
In this study, we introduce a convenient Heck vinylation protocol that eliminates the requirement for ethylene gas as a coupling partner. In contrast to traditional methodologies, quaternary ammonium salts can serve as solid olefin precursors under ambient atmosphere conditions. The practicality of this method, distinguished by its convenience and safety in a one-pot reaction, renders it appealing for applications in research and discovery context.

Abstract
The phosphoryl radical is well-known to participate in addition reactions with alkenes/alkynes. Here, we report a novel reaction mode of the phosphoryl radical where it participates in halogen atom transfer (XAT) with electron deficient vinyl halides instead of a facile addition reaction. Nevertheless, in comparison with aryl and alkyl halides, the exploitation of vinyl halides into a carbon radical via XAT is quite rare. This protocol provides an opportunity for direct hydrosulfonylation of numerous internal as well as terminal alkynes to get various Z-vinyl sulfones under environmentally benign conditions. Generation of the phosphoryl radical in the open air, water as a solvent, excellent functional group compatibility, and exceptional chemoselectivity are the attractive features of the present methodology.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) over-expression is a key factor in multi-drug resistance (MDR), which is a major factor in the failure of cancer treatment. P-gp inhibitors have been demonstrated to have powerful pharmacological properties and may be used as a therapeutic approach to overcome the MDR in cancer cells. Combining clinical investigations with biochemical and computational research may potentially lead to a clearer understanding of the pharmacological properties and the mechanisms of action of these P-gp inhibitors. The task of turning these discoveries into effective therapeutic candidates for a variety of malignancies, including resistant and metastatic kinds, falls on medicinal chemists. A variety of P-gp inhibitors with great potency, high selectivity, and minimal toxicity have been identified in recent years. The latest advances in drug design, characterization, structure-activity relationship (SAR) research, and modes of action of newly synthesized, powerful small molecules P-gp inhibitors over the previous ten years are highlighted in this review. P-gp transporter over-expression has been linked to MDR, therefore the development of P-gp inhibitors will expand our understanding of the processes and functions of P-gp-mediated drug efflux, which will be helpful for drug discovery and clinical cancer therapies.

Abstract
Divergent functionalization of α,β-unsaturated sulfones under copper catalysis is reported. Diastereoselective borylative allylation of alkenyl sulfones was achieved with a copper catalyst, allyl phosphate, bis(pinacolato)diboron, and LiOMe. In this method, the addition of a copper-boryl complex to alkenyl sulfone and subsequent allylic substitution rendered boroallylated products in good yield with excellent syn-diastereoselectivity. In contrast, a stronger base (KOt-Bu) promoted the reaction further toward the formation of (E)-skipped dienes, through elimination of the sulfonyl and boryl groups.

Abstract
A series of compact and multifunctional 2-alkyl-substituted vinyl sulfonyl fluorides were efficiently prepared from the corresponding alkyl iodides and 2-chloroprop-2-ene-1-sulfonyl fluoride (CESF). This Giese-type radical approach provided new and general access to alkenyl sulfonyl fluorides, including structures that would otherwise be challenging to synthesize with previously established methods. A correspondingly large collection of derivatization reactions was also demonstrated on the alkenyl sulfonyl fluorides.

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.

Abstract
Sulfonyl fluorides have emerged as powerful "click" electrophiles to access sulfonylated derivatives. Yet, they are relatively inert towards C-C bond forming transformations, notably under transition-metal catalysis. Here, we describe conditions under which aryl sulfonyl fluorides act as electrophiles for the Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling. This desulfonative cross-coupling occurs selectively in the absence of base and, unusually, even in the presence of strong acids. Divergent one-step syntheses of two analogues of bioactive compounds showcase the expanded reactivity of sulfonyl fluorides to encompass both S-Nu and C-C bond formation. Mechanistic experiments and DFT calculations suggest oxidative addition occurs at the C-S bond followed by desulfonation to form a Pd-F intermediate that facilitates transmetalation.

Abstract
A new method for the generation of tertiary radicals through single electron reduction of alkylsulfones promoted by Zn and 1,10-phenanthroline has been developed. These radicals could be employed in the Giese reaction, affording structurally diverse quaternary products in good yields. With the high modularity and functional group compatibility of sulfones, the utility of this method was demonstrated by intramolecular and iterative reactions to give complex structures. The radical generation process was investigated by control experiments and theoretical calculations. A new method for the generation of tertiary radicals through single electron reduction of alkylsulfones promoted by Zn and 1,10-phenanthroline has been developed.![]()
