Copper catalyzed direct tert-butyl sulfonylation of alkynes with t-butylsulfinamide leading to (E)-vinyl sulfones

Abstract

The first copper-catalyzed tert-butyl sulfonylation reaction of alkynes with t-butylsulfinamide for the construction of (E)-vinyl sulfones has been developed. The cleavage of the N–S bond of t-butylsulfinamide, which was catalyzed by CuSO4·5H2O, is the key step for this transformation.
