We have developed a photoinduced oxidative cross-coupling of thiophenols with alcohols for O–S bond formation. The protocol uses visible light, a metal-free photocatalyst, and oxygen as the oxidant for the selective synthesis of alkyl benzenesulfonates; no ligand co-additive is necessary. Mechanistic studies suggested that the disulfide and alkyl benzenesulfinate are involved as intermediates and that the transformation proceeds by a radical pathway.

The selective synthesis of oxazoles, alkylidene oxazoles, and 1,3-oxazines from N-propargyl carboxamides by choosing gold(III) or gold(I) catalysts and selecting terminal or internal alkynes as substrates is discussed. The mechanistic studies based on labeling experiments and intensive in situ NMR studies indicate an anti-oxyauration step and a proto-deauration with retention of the sterical arrangement at the double bond. The synthetic scope for gold(I) catalysts is very broad, allowing selective conversions to products with properties of chelate ligands, reactions of bromoarenes and the formation of acceptor-substituted oxazoles. With N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands in the presence of a base, even the vinylgold intermediates of the reactions leading to 1,3-oxazines could be isolated, a reaction with a great potential for future mechanistic studies and future applications of gold catalysis.

Abstract The [3,3]-rearrangement of aryl iodanes with α,β-unsaturated oxazolines has been developed by merging Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) process into the rearrangement reaction. The method allows for the exclusively E-selective synthesis of a wide variety of valuable α-aryl α,β-unsaturated oxazolines which can be difficult to synthesize with other known methods. Experimental and computational mechanistic studies unraveled that the reaction proceeds via the assembly of both coupling partners followed by MBH-type addition to form rearrangement precursor, [3,3]-rearrangement, and stepwise E1cb-elimination. The E-selectivity of the reaction is favored both kinetically and thermodynamically.
