Acetonitrile-Hexane Extraction Route to Pure Sulfonium Salts.

ABSTRACT: A rapid, simple procedure is described for synthesizing trialkyl, dialkylaryl, and alkyldiaryl sulfonium salts that features a selective extraction procedure to access analytically pure sulfonium salts. Alkylation of dialkylsulfides, alkylarylsulfides, and diarylsulfides followed by partitioning between acetonitrile and hexanes efficiently separates nonpolar reactants and byproducts, the usual impurities, to afford analytically pure crystalline and noncrystalline sulfonium salts. The method is efficient, general, and particularly well suited for the preparation of oily sulfonium salts that are otherwise extremely difficult to purify.

Direct synthesis of diastereomerically pure glycosyl sulfonium salts.

Project description:It is reported that stable glycosyl sulfonium salts can be generated via direct anomeric S-methylation of ethylthioglycosides. Mechanistically, this pathway represents the first step in the activation of thioglycosides for glycosidation; however, it can further allow for the synthesis and isolation of quasi-stable sulfonium ions, representing a new approach for studying these key intermediates.

Photochemical (Hetero-)Arylation of Aryl Sulfonium Salts.

Project description:The construction of (hetero)biaryls, which are ubiquitous scaffolds among medical substances, functional materials, and agrochemicals, constitutes a key application of cross-coupling methods. However, these usually require multiple synthetic steps. Herein, we report a simple photoinduced and catalyst-free C-H/C-H (hetero)arylation cross-coupling through aryl thianthrenium salts, which are formed site-selectively by direct C-H functionalization. The key to this approach is the UV-light, which can disrupt the C-S bond to form thianthrene radical cations and aryl radicals.

Site-Selective C-H Oxygenation via Aryl Sulfonium Salts.

Project description:Herein, we report a two-step process forming arene C-O bonds in excellent site-selectivity at a late-stage. The C-O bond formation is achieved by selective introduction of a thianthrenium group, which is then converted into C-O bonds using photoredox chemistry. Electron-rich, -poor and -neutral arenes as well as complex drug-like small molecules are successfully transformed into both phenols and various ethers. The sequence differs conceptually from all previous arene oxygenation reactions in that oxygen functionality can be incorporated into complex small molecules at a late stage site-selectively, which has not been shown via aryl halides.

Aryl Sulfonium Salts for Site-Selective Late-Stage Trifluoromethylation.

Project description:Incorporation of the CF3 group into arenes has found increasing importance in drug discovery. Herein, we report the first photoredox-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl thianthrenium salts with a copper-based trifluoromethyl reagent, which enables a site-selective late-stage trifluoromethylation of arenes. The reaction proceeds with broad functional group tolerance, even for complex small molecules on gram scale. The method was further extended to produce pentafluoroethylated derivatives.

Cine-Substitutions at Five-Membered Hetarenes Enabled by Sulfonium Salts.

Project description:We report a nucleophilic substitution reaction of five-membered hetarylsulfonium salts that results in a change of the substitution pattern on the arene. The products of these cine-substitutions are hard to access synthetically otherwise. The sulfonium salts that serve as starting materials are generated by a highly site-selective C-H functionalization reaction.

Site-Selective Late-Stage Aromatic [18 F]Fluorination via Aryl Sulfonium Salts.

Project description:Site-selective functionalization of C-H bonds in small complex molecules is a long-standing challenge in organic chemistry. Herein, we report a broadly applicable and site-selective aromatic C-H dibenzothiophenylation reaction. The conceptual advantage of this transformation is further demonstrated through the two-step C-H [18 F]fluorination of a series of marketed small-molecule drugs.

Late-Stage Heteroarylation of Hetero(aryl)sulfonium Salts Activated by α-Amino Alkyl Radicals.

Project description:We report a late-stage heteroarylation of aryl sulfonium salts through activation with α-amino alkyl radicals in a mechanistically distinct approach from previously reported halogen-atom transfer (XAT). The new mode of activation of aryl sulfonium salts proceeds in the absence of light and photoredox catalysts, engaging a wide range of hetarenes. Furthermore, we demonstrate the applicability of this methodology in synthetically useful cross-coupling transformations.

Sulfonium salts as leaving groups for aromatic labelling of drug-like small molecules with fluorine-18.

Project description:Positron emission tomography (PET) is unique in that it allows quantification of biochemical processes in vivo, but difficulties with preparing suitably labelled radiotracers limit its scientific and diagnostic applications. Aromatic [(18)F]fluorination of drug-like small molecules is particularly challenging as their functional group compositions often impair the labelling efficiency. Herein, we report a new strategy for incorporation of (18)F into highly functionalized aromatic compounds using sulfonium salts as leaving groups. The method is compatible with pharmacologically relevant functional groups, including aliphatic amines and basic heterocycles. Activated substrates react with [(18)F]fluoride at room temperature, and with heating the reaction proceeds in the presence of hydrogen bond donors. Furthermore, the use of electron rich spectator ligands allows efficient and regioselective [(18)F]fluorination of non-activated aromatic moieties. The method provides a broadly applicable route for (18)F labelling of biologically active small molecules, and offers immediate practical benefits for drug discovery and imaging with PET.

Ring-Closing Synthesis of Dibenzothiophene Sulfonium Salts and Their Use as Leaving Groups for Aromatic 18F-Fluorination.

Project description:Herein, we report a novel intramolecular ring-closing reaction of biaryl thioethers that give access to highly functionalized dibenzothiophene sulfonium salts under mild conditions. The resulting precursors react regioselectively with [18F]fluoride to give [18F]fluoroarenes in predictable radiochemical yields. The strategy expands the available radiochemical space and provides superior labeling efficiency for clinically relevant PET tracers.

A convenient route to optically pure ?-alkyl-?-(sec-amino)alanines.

Project description:The cyclization of N-Boc-?-alkylserines to corresponding ?-lactones under Mitsunobu reaction conditions and the ring opening with heterocyclic amines (pyrrolidine, piperidine, morpholine and thiomorpholine) produced N-Boc-?-alkyl-?-(sec-amino)alanines. The removal of the Boc group gives di-hydrochlorides of non-protein amino acids.
