The Synthesis of (E)‐Vinyl and Alkynyl Sulfones by the Formation of an Electron Donor‐Acceptor Complex Using Thiosulfonates and Sodium Iodide Under Visible Light

“…As a sulfur-containing reagent, thiosulfonate is characterized by being odorless and environmentally friendly, which has attracted the attention of many chemists. [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49] Therefore, a variety of methods for cracking thiosulfonates into active species have been developed as shown in Scheme 1a, (1), [35] (2), [38,50,51] (3), [31,50,52,53] (4), [32,36,37,40,[54][55][56][57] leading to various methods for construction of CÀ S bonds. Despite the significance of these approaches, there are still plagued by at least one of the following limitations: (1) the use of transition metal catalysts, (2) the need for high reaction temperature, (3) the necessity of photocatalysts and, (4) hyperoxides as oxidants.…”
