Abstract
One-pot syntheses of sulfinates, sulfinamides, and thiosulfinates by O-, N-, and S-sulfinylations of alcohols, amines, and thiols with p-toluenesulfinic acid in the presence of various activating reagents, phenyl phosphorodichloridate (1), diphenyl phosphoro-chloridate (2), triphenylphosphine N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) (3), and 3-(phthalimidoxy)-1, 2-benzoisothiazole 1, 1-dioxide (4), were investigated. All of these reagents were reasonably effective for O-and S-sulfinylation, but ineffective for N-sulfinylation. Among them, the reagents 1 and 2 were slightly more efficient than the others.
