A novel rhodium-catalyzed domino-hydroformylation-reaction for the synthesis of sulphonamides†
Abstract
An efficient and highly selective method for the synthesis of sulphonamides by a domino hydroformylation-reductive sulphonamidation reaction has been developed. Various olefins and sulphonamides are converted into the desired products in good yields and with excellent selectivities in the presence of a rhodium/Naphos catalyst.
