“…6 Therefore, the C2 transformation of quinoxalinones is still highly desirable via simple, mild, efficient, and metal-free strategies. Given the research interests in oxidative cross-coupling reactions, 7 to overcome challenges in oxidative O–S coupling and diversify the oxidative O–S coupling mechanism, 7 b we established a facile and efficient oxidative O–S cross-coupling strategy for synthesizing 2-sulfonyloxylated quinoxalines starting from quinoxalinones and sodium sulfinates (Scheme 1b).…”
