Metal-free sulfonylative annulations of alkyl diiodides with sulfur dioxide: synthesis of cyclic aliphatic sulfones
Xiuwen Jia, Chunxi Huang, Xuemei Zhang, Zhong Lian
Abstract
A straightforward protocol for cyclic aliphatic sulfones is effectively established via sulfonylative annulations of alkyl diiodides and gaseous sulfur dioxide. Five- to nine-membered cyclic aliphatic sulfones were afforded in this manner.
